Kierstin and Katie's Work in Kenya....An Orphange School

I have to tell you what Kierstin and Katie did in Kitale, Kenya 'cuz it is so cool. From an earlier blog you may remember that they went to a refugee camp in Tansania. There they watched refugee families function in a very difficult situation and survive. Following that experience they went north to Kenya and these 2 college grads (Cal Poly SLO) gave of themselves at an school full of orphans. Looking at the pictures, you'll find it hard to tell if the chidren are boys or girls. For a month they taught English and Math to 2nd and 3rd graders. Again, the kids fell in love with Katie and Kiki and the girls fell in love with the kids! And saying goodbye was very very hard. Evidence is those BIG 'OLE TEARS on the little girl that Kiki is holding. As a dad, I'm so proud of the girls for giving of themselves and sacrificing so that these children can have some joy in their lives...have someone to love on them. Below are pictures of the girls and their classes. Obviously they had a great influence on the kids and had a great time with them.
