Many people ask us what we need in Kenya. The joy of donors to clean out their closets or shop for items to bless children in Kenya is admirable and the list of wants is always endless. Though luggage is limited, we carry all that is allowable.
This year I asked our staff to prioritize their wish list of items they would like us to carry to Kenya in January.
Just in from Cate in Kenya at the Joseph Waweru Home School:
Home shoes, school shoes, book bags-back packs, warm jackets/sweaters, work gloves, aprons, shorts, home trousers, T-shirts, socks, medical supplies-deworming tabs, first aid kit, piritons,(I have a question in about this one.),hand sanitizers, kitchen supplies-jikos, hot pots, pot holders, hard sufurias (not sure what these are), covers, wooden cook spoons, pencils, pens, rubbers(erasers), paper, hats-warm ones,
Ohh,how can we forget about good old Cate? She wants Dental floss, CD player,wall hooks (glue on) ,Manchester united jersey or scarf ( a soccer team).
--------
Bev's additions to the wish list to carry - shake, solar, wind up or battery flashlights, Bibles, children's books, plumbing snake,

Peter's list will be along soon.
If you want to donate any of these things for us to carry, please get them to

before the end of December, 2010 and we will carry as much as we are able.
