This program was initiated by Mapendo, and supported by TBA to reach out to neglected, needy seniors in the community.
For Christmas, they were given fabric for dresses, and a new blanket, in addition to being fed!
Their appreciation was ecstatic and filled with joy and thankfulness.
Thank you for helping us to help them!

There are times when I open my email and see heartache!
Here is one of those;

It's difficult to capture all the people breaking up rocks with their small hammers, but this is how they make gravel for the roads etc. Labour intensive!

a very dear lady collected Crocs shoes and sent them to Congo. The gift was a great expression of love to the orphan children!!
