Sri Lanka: 1st Distribution In Pictures!


What a great distribution to start our trip on! As a first time 17 year old SCAW team member it was a wonderful experience connecting with and entertaining the kids while they waited patiently to get their picture taken. The process of giving a child a bedkit was a sight to behold and a remarkable operation to participate in due to the diligence and hard work of the Rotary Club members. 


My job today was to line up the children before they got their picture taken. We played with bubbles and gave many high fives. Counting to ten was even a form of entertainment! 700 kids from 62 local schools were chosen today to receive bedkits donated so graciously by you, the donor. I was lucky enough be part of this incredible procedure. 



A huge thank you also goes out to the students and staff of the host school. Even though they themselves were not receiving a bedkit their help was integral to the success of distribution today. We look forward to distributing more bedkits tomorrow!
