I am just waiting for Irene to pick me up. We are heading to Pipeline camp to meet with the committee and find out the results of the lottery. Ten families are going to have houses built for them through this project! I am so excited. Next I need to start fundraising!
We are also going to Pipeline to start a porridge program through the GVN Foundation for the 568 ECD kids (aged btw 2 and 5) who attend class in one of the large emergency tents supplied by UNICEF. We need to buy bags of maize flour, millet flour, sugar, powdered milk, and also big pots and charcoal to cook it with.
We don't have enough funds to supply food to the whole camp so we are starting with the kids. At least they will be getting one cup of porridge a day and hopefully it will take some of the worry away from the parents.
I will let you know how we go!
