New Maasai Partners & a Visit to Amboseli...












On Monday, May 2nd, we traveled down to Amboseli National Park to meet with Daniel, the schoolmaster at the Ilkengaare Community School we've been working with all year. After catching up with him, we drove to a nearby Maasai community where Daniel introduced us to friends and family living there. The school in this village (called Inchurra Maasai Community School) has some needs that we may be able to help meet through Freedom Through Learning. We were treated to a welcome dance and a visit with village leaders, as well as a visit to the school before we went back to Daniel's traditional home for tea and chapatis. It was a fabulous day, topped off with some close-up encounters with beautiful elephants on the way out of the park.
