Today, day 3 of our distributions, we headed to Gimbo, just 25 km from Kampala. Travelling to the destination of the day brings new sights and sounds of the beautiful Ugandan countryside. Lush green hillsides with maze, matoke, and root crops, to name a few. Today we were challenged with very narrow, and dusty rut filled roads we had not encountered on prior days. Thankfully our driver Hussan delivered us safe and sound.
Driving into a location for the distribution is one of my favourite parts of the day, and a sight to behold. Mattresses and bed kits piled high, children and their families lining the road in greeting and excitement of what's to come. All are dressed in their Sunday best and singing in celebration. It's hard not to get a little emotional each time.
