"Just wanted you both to know that the bracelet sale has gone well...we have money for you to pick up. Parker's Sofa Cents is receiving numerous donations in the office... that is also going well.
Ane the excitement has caught on! We had a Kindergarten class of girls (about 8 of them) that decided to also create a fundraiser for Nomad Charities by selling little paper fans for five cents each around our school. VERY CUTE! They put the chance into Parker's Sofa Cents container. I think they made way more that 5 cents a fan:)" - Kathy Ludwig - Principal

Jenn and Janette returned from Kenya in early May after completing the drilling of one of the first private boreholes in the entire District of Kibwezi. The orphanage construction project continues to operate on time and on budget. Jenn & Janette have formed a great relationship with the new MP of our district, the Hon. Philip Kaloki. We have formed a partnership Prof. Kaloki with our first project being the construction of the only public library in the District of Kibwezi. The MP will use allotted government funds to build the facility, the land was donated by a local community member and Nomad is shipping 15,000 books to Mombasa for the library.
Jenn & Janette are heading back to Kibwezi on August 16th for a two month stay.
