Kenya 2012

Jambo:
Makena Children's Foundation President Sherri Mills and I arrive in Nairobi Saturday, March 31 for a whirlwind couple of weeks of warm reunions, important meetings and work with our Kenyan management team, Francis and Charles Karanja. We look forward to connecting with each child, their families and their school personnel. 

One focus for us this trip is checking out options for vocational training for our high school graduates who did not score high enough on their exams to receive government support for college.

We look forward to sharing information with you on this blog whenever we can.

As always, thank you for your generous support,
                                                                       Anne Batzer
