Happenings

We'd love your help so that we can help other teachers!  We will be working in rural Kenyan schools for two weeks this summer to train Kenyan teachers how to encourage reading, creative writing, and science projects, and to promote critical thinking.  The students we will be working with live in extreme poverty, and the teachers receive little to no staff development, so it is our mission to use our teaching talents and experiences to improve their educational lives.   We hope to raise money to help defray the cost of the trip which will be about $3,800 for each of us.  The cost of rooming, meals, and transportation while in Kenya is approximately $1,000 for each of us. Airfare round trip from New York to Nairobi will be approximately $1,370 for each of us depending on pricing at the time of booking.    Then there are visas, airport transfers, medical kits, teaching supplies...The costs add up! We've had a relationship with Kenya Connect for a few years now.
