We have our return dates


It looks as if we shall be returning to Kenya at the end of September. We'll leave Vancouver on September 21 and spend about three days in the UK. We should roll up to our door in Kakamega on Sunday 27.

News from Kenya is not good with respect to the economy. The unrest last year and subsequent drought has led to severe food shortages and increases in prices. Donor money for many NGOs has slowed to a trickle. We have applied for a grant from Rotary International to expand the "Adopt a Village" project we started last year in Emmaloba. We are hopeful that the funds will allow us to do adult literacy, business traininga nd start some income generating projects.
