Balls

The Seattle-based Olsen Family made a recent donation that came with a special request that I buy soccer balls and other athletic equipment for the Cura kids to enjoy this trip. I picked up some of those items today, and I concentrated on balls made by Alive and Kicking, another Kenya-based non-profit that's doing admirable work. Also, their tagline is pretty awesome.

Thanks, Olsens!

Birthday Goodness

Monday is ending here in Nairobi, but it's still Cura-sponsor Beth's birthday on  the west coast of the US... and she's been encouraging her friends to give! 

In lieu of gifts to her, her friends have already donated about $4500 through our Network for Good link. As I put my jet-lagged head on my pillow here, I'm sending a big 

Happy Birthday!

to Beth and a heart-felt 

Thank You! 

to the generous people who have included Cura in their celebration of her.

Louisiana Garage Sale for Cura Clinic!

Leah decided to raise funds to support a Community Health Day through Cura Clinic, and her weekend garage sale got the job done! We're looking forward to having her in Cura in May!

High Tech Plea

Last June, we did a major overhaul of the computer lab equipment... and it's time to do it again! Our Nairobi-based IT folks say we need about US$800 worth of work done... please message me if you're willing to contribute to this cause!
