Today’s distribution was in the Kaukura area. There were lots of children milling about, all very anxious to entertain us with their dancing.
We visited the home of a family a short walk through corn fields from the school. The property was a mini -compound of clay huts with thatched roofs. The four children sleep together in one hut which is perhaps 8 feet in diameter and the parents are nearby in a slightly larger hut. A third hut serves as the kitchen and a tiny forth is for the pigeons. The children's hut is also home to a turkey which is minding her nest of eggs in the corner.
550 very happy children received bed kits today!
