Pre-distribution
Team Kenya arrived in Nairobi ready to begin our distribution of 8000 bedkits to Kenya‘s most deserving children. We were welcomed at the airport by our driver, Charles and his family.
Welcome to Kenya
The next day, the two teams met to get to know each other, review the itinerary for the next two weeks and look over the contents of this year’s bedkits. We were told that each $40 donation was stretched to manufacture and purchase an expanded array of items, in part due to the great negotiation skills of a few of the Rotary members.
One of the goals for 2024 was to visit more remote communities in Kenya outside of the inner city of Nairobi for some of our distributions. This involved long drives on bumpy roads, at times, cleverly navigated by our skilled driver, Charles.
Some days we traveled 3 to 5 hours to get to sites north of the equator and south to the territory of the Maasai peoples.
Yesterday, as we drove through the Maasai Mara National Park to get to our destination on the other side, we encountered a very interesting road block!
