Dear Friends,
Please receive warm love greetings from Kenya. We are glad for yet another opportunity to send you some updates about our Christmas gift program that without your support could not come this far. We therefore want to deeply thank you deeply for your continued support.
Every year since 2003 we raise support seeking for cash and material donations to run our annual Christmas gift program for the needy, most of our donations come in-kind from the local people and entities who donate to us their time, food stuff, second hand clothes etc, we have a few international friends like you who have donated to this project via global giving and we cannot belittle your support, it is because of you that we are able to cover logistics cost like hiring a van to collect donations locally and also distribute to the needy.
In 2014 we raised about 200$ and almost a truck-full of clothing and a small amount of foodstuff benefiting about 40 needy households which fell way below our selected 120 very poor homes. In 2015 we seek funds to give poor kids a treat and purchase more food-stuff. We are also gearing for local fundraising hoping to raise enough material donations to benefit about 100 homes and 75 kids, of cause minimizing our target to benefit the neediest. We dearly seek your support to realize this goal.

In-case you are out there and you want to collect material donations please get in-touch with us and we will try to link you with friends who can bring the donations to us as a personal luggage therefore relieving you of shipping charges.
We also kindly ask you to “like’’ our Facebook pages for frequent updates.
