2015-2017 Projects Continued

We would go to Angiya which was 12 km away but took 40 mins to drive there. If you have never been to a third world country it is hard to explain what the roads are like. Potholes 6 feet in diameter and 2.5 deep.

We brought a lot of medical supplies for the maternity hospital as well as helped purchased medicine and a microscope for the clinic to do their own testing. We did 7 days of art programs at the Angiya Primary School along with the assistant principal Joseph who is now going to continue doing projects with the kids. We also facilitated the primary agricultural assessment of the 12 villages that surround Angiya to see what was the best way to help.

The local chiefs are now part of the process, the school has volunteered to donate land to have a demonstration farm and the reports we are getting are very positive.

Inrotduced to  the Medical Mission Sisters clinic in Angíya. Sister Gaudencia Wanyoni runs a maternity hospital as well as an AIDS clinic for the local people. We helped with replacement of roofs, looked at setting up a playground for the local children, started an art program in conjunction with the local schools and we supplied the clinic with medical supplies and medications thanks to Fairview Hospital and Steve Bannon.

Evaluate the Angiya area and see if we can get a training program for that community for agricultural diversity and ecological practices. Self- sustaining empowering training is where we are heading.

Our art program at the Anyiya Primary School was a huge hit and we almost needed a security detail to keep all of the kids out. We dealt with 20 at a time but all of the kids wanted in and the work that they did sold in the gallery the spring and summer of 2016.

2015

Continued the afterschool art program for 300 primary schoolchildren.

Had an assessment done by FREEKENYA to see if the village would like to be trained in agricultural diversity.

Constructed the preschool playground area safe and installed play structures using local materials.

AIDS orphans service group: We brought laptop computers and introduced OFFICE training for the 60 women who maintain contact and records for 3000 AIDS orphans.

Repaired 10 homes with new roofs and some structural updates.

Distributed 100 Solar Luci Lux lights and introduced 15 solar phone chargers. The solar light and chargers helps 3 ways. 1. They do not need to buy kerosene thus saving 15ksh a day. 2.The pollutants don’t enter the home thus helping out the air quality in the home. 3. The cost to charge a phone is 15ksh a day and the charger can help charge two other phone therefore creating an income stream to the household.
