Julie Andrew posted the latest update on Kate Hodge and herself visiting Umoja Orphanage in Kenya.
Karibu! Day 7 in Kenya and Kate & I spent a long day yesterday traveling 2 1/2 hrs across the city of Mombasa to The Good Life Orphanage. Set up by Kevin and Mary Maguire
It was lovely to see the huge progress they have made in 8 years. Then onto the Kikimbala Feeding Station where we helped feed 1200 children with a piece of watermelon, a bread roll, cup of rice, cup of kidney beans and a cup of cordial! The children then lined up to take home a small bag of maize flour, a banana and a small packet of biscuits. It was very emotional as these children walked up to 6 km to and from the station, children as young as 1 on their teenage mothers backs! 🍼
It was a 12 hour day and we all went to bed early!
More updates to come....
