Veldig takknemlig!



Etter at en haug av mennesker på min kontaktliste

fikk direkte henvendelse på sms, har vi fått inn nok

penger til både tavler og pulter, skoletur og mat ut

skoleåret (skoleåret følger kalenderen i Kenya). Vi

er SÅ takknemlige ❤️ Vi ønsker oss fremdeles flere

månedlige bidrag for forutsigbarheten skyld, men

setter veldig, veldig pris på alle bidrag! Dere er

fantastiske ❤️

Jambo Happy Day family. We hope you are all fine. We at happy
day are charged up to teach and educate the happy day kids.
We are also ready for both academic and extra curriculum activities. 

This is the last term of 2023 and we have a series of events in our calendar
and we hope to achieve our objectives. Despite the hard economic times,
we continued with the feeding program by having the parents pay 20 shillings
a day (which isn't even enough for 1 meal) plus self contributions. We have been
cooking 3kg of rice instead of 6. Most of the parents are unable to pay the 20 shillings
 but we have to feed even the most needy. We will appreciate if the feeding program:
 comes back in full. (Read to the end - photos are in between important information <3)
