Mission Trip updates
We are sending you news now because SO MUCH is happening while Avis Goodheart and Betty Bartholomew are in Kenya right now. There is alot to celebrate (SCROLL DOWN TO SEE THE TOYS and FUN TIMES), as you’ll see in the pictures. There are also some needs/wants Betty and Avis wish to address before they leave October 30.
1. The solar power system received a power surge that burned up the motherboard, and the cost to fix it, including a surge protector, is $1,910 USD. The compound has had no electricity for a few days. Betty and Avis have gone into the town to send/receive messages. We ask for $1,910 to fix this system!
2. Avis and Betty will take the kids swimming on October 26 if they receive $300 to cover swimming fees and transportation. This would be exciting!
3. They need more mattress covers for a total of $200 due to kids wetting the beds (to save the mattresses).
4. There is a need for a few more pairs of shoes for certain kids that would be $25.
Any gifts can be designated to specific items if you wish! We appreciate your support as we care for these orphaned and abandoned kids!!!
The ROAD
The mud road was dug up with the equipment, next laying gravel, adding a retaining wall, and finally see a big beautiful road! THANK YOU for enabling this important improvement.
