Lois, Lawrence, Janet, Bill, Monika, Margo and I have safely arrived in Kampala Uganda. After a long flight we were cheerfully greeted by our Overseas Partners of the Inner Wheel. Together we are all looking forward to our Uganda 2018 distribution. We will be distributing 7,000 bedkits and we are excited to get going.
Today was orientation. We had 2 meetings to meet and mingle with the women we will be working with. It is important to point out how much work they have already done. All of this happens behind the scenes and leads to a successful and organized distribution days.
As a committee the women select the neediest children, locally source the items in the bedkits, choose the distribution sites and arrange for the packaging and delivery. The women also packaged the 7,000 bedkits over 4 days. This year the mattress manufacturer has offered to store and deliver the kits.
We know we are in good hands working with The Inner Wheel. They are great partners and help to ensure that these most needed items are delivered to the children and that the days will be fun and memorable for these precious children.
