On Friday 5/19 we held a fundraiser at Kenyan Cuisine. Friends and family came out to support our cause through dinner and dancing. The event was an amazing success and we raised $480! Thanks to the fundraiser and the generous support of our online donors we have nearly reached our fundraising goal of $10,000 that will help provide healthcare and water resources to the people of Maasai Mara and Kavumbu. We want to thank you for all the support.
Kelley Butler and Jackie Muthoka leave for Kenya on Thursday! The rest of us are joining them on June 5th. Please follow our website and facebook page for blog posts and photos.
