In Sara's last post she mentioned a very generous donation, and what was done with it. I thought I would share the last post from the organization itself: http://www.lightinafrica.org/blog/index.php?entry=entry121007-100557. Thanks to this generous support, the food kitchen was able to stay open in this severe drought, which is truly amazing.
Working there 2 years ago, I can still remember the faces of those many kids coming from school to have their only meal of the day thanks to Light in Africa. It bring smiles and tears to face all at the same time - thinking what would have happened, had they not stayed open and thinking about those lively kids coming to the food kitchen.
So I just thought I'd add that short link and also thank our generous donator!
As for me, I have had 4 weeks of pure stress and I having finally been able to sit down and think about what my stress is compared to those kids at LIA. Where they are worried where to get the next meal, I am well fed (much too well), healthy, and spoiled. Looking forward to getting grounded again soon ... and seeing all those smiles at the food kitchen!
