Just this week, I got an email from a friend who works for Lands' End uniform dept. She is a sponsor with her family and wanted to get more involved with the fund raising for the uniforms at Kechene! We are presently around $750 with almost $700 left. However, she and her team at work are working hard to get a bake sale planned for Feb. 18! A slide show will be shown and perhaps a match by Lands' End! This is such great news because these people work with schools around the world who order uniforms from them. They make the uniform orders just right for children who attend very elite schools. The uniforms we are raising money for are for children with uniforms that is so tattered that they don't fit or stay up at times, and these kids have to have a uniform in order to get an education.
We are excited to see what these efforts bring. I will keep the blog informed!Also, I recently heard from a church member of Hidden Valley who teaches Karate. He was so touched by one of the presentations that I shared that he would like to donate one month's payments from his Karate Feb. classes for the uniforms at Kechene. What a big heart for these kids he has!
I am so amazed by hearts being moved all around me and so encouraged by the stories that people share with me about how their involvement has changed their familys' lives!!
