$30 Gift to Ndoto’s Coronavirus Efforts: Checkout What’s Going On In Kenya? Like at least 176 other countries, Kenya has begun to see cases of COVID-19. To date, Kenya has 59 confirmed cases, but they are almost entirely limited to counties surrounding Kenya’s two largest cities, Nairobi and Mombasa. There have been no cases of the virus confirmed in Kisumu, where we work, or in nearby counties. Kenya has only recorded one death.

by Fred Sadia Telling a story is nice, but telling a story of true resilience is sweet. Such is the beautiful story of a man who, after several years of challenges, is ready to repair. He is ready to patch up the broken past…. and broken vehicles. It is a breezy Wednesday afternoon – the advantage of being in a town adjacent to a lake – and as usual all the Ndoto offices are occupied with staff who are ensuring that the mission and vision of Ndoto are attained.

by John Seale Thank you to all of our wonderful sponsors who wrote letters to our students this year. We packed them in suitcases and they’ve just arrived in Kisumu. The letters are a huge project, both in the US and in Kenya. We currently have 374 sponsorship relationships, and we hope for two letters for each every year! While it’s a huge project, it’s very rewarding and something that I look forward to.

Ordinarily, when a student leaves Ndoto before graduating, it’s a sad occasion. Sometimes, however, we are amazed at their maturity and praise God for it! Irene is an example. She joined Ndoto in 2018 at 21 years old, going into her third year of pharmacy school at a top university. With incredible grades, but her single mother raising 3 other children in high school by selling tomatoes, Irene’s family had sold nearly all of their belongings to settle debts.

By George Ochieng I had an opportunity to watch this movie last month, with themes cutting across leadership, kingdoms, betrayal, unexploited potential, cultural diversity, and more. They have this special mineral called Vibranium that everyone covets and are fighting over because of its diverse abilities. According to the movie, it is believed that the mineral was deposited on Earth 10,000 years ago by a meteorite. The metal is capable of absorbing waves and other vibrations thus it is used to make things like armor and weapons.
