Hey Hey Hey!
This is a short
blog post with an update on the bus project!!
So as you probably know, I’ve been working with my Kenyan
counterparts on raising money for a bus for the school. I was evacuated a
little over a month ago but the idea is still strong and actions are being made
to keep the dream alive!
My school has been doing their part and raising money since
the walk by talking churches in the area as well as visiting schools. Their
goal is not only to raise money but also to raise awareness of our school and
the Deaf community. Now it’s our turn to raise the money that would’ve been
raised through the grant had I been able to complete my service there.
A website has been created with information about my school
and the bus project and a place to donate on the top of the webpage.
The website link if you’re interested in learning
more/donating: http://webdbyj.com/sipili/
If you have any questions about the school or the project,
please leave a comment underneath and I would be happy to answer them for you!
Lastly, For more information on the actual walk, there was
an article written about it by a local Kenyan from Sipili: http://laikipiaruralvoices.blogspot.in/2014/06/sipili-school-for-deaf-walk-for-bus.html
Also, I had written a blog post on it back in June:
Thank you for your generosity, well wishes and prayers!!
Love, Zabet
