After several months in a shipping container (special thanks to Dennis Hoekstra from Grand Rapids for allowing Freedom Through Learning boxes to catch a ride alongside his shipment!), dozens of boxes of books arrived in Nairobi two weeks ago. A large portion of this shipment had been requested by the Starehe Boys' School here in Nairobi, and both King's Collegiate and Durham Christian High School filled the requests and sent textbooks and supplies. Many thanks to all of our friends at these schools! On Saturday, Brian and I drove over to Starehe (using some newly-finished flyovers, better known as overpasses at home, which made the drive much less hectic and chaotic) and delivered the books to Charles, the head librarian, and some head boys. Chemistry texts, English book sets, whistles for the outdoor program and much, much more have now made their way into the hands of eager learners here. What a blessing! Check out the video!
