Maurice, mentioned in the previous post, arrived on Friday with two volunteers from the US to set up a two day medical camp at the Jamii School in Kibera to serve the community. I had the pleasure of working the first day of the medical camp, and we were joined, also, by a doctor and a nurse from Kenyatta Hospital. It was a long day in Kibera but we were able to see and treat over 100 Kiberan children, many of them under two years old.
I had a nice time chatting with Maurice about his organization and his vision for his homeland. I told him about the IDP camps, especially Baruku, and he is trying to organize a visit to give exams to the Dust Babies later in the week. I really hope that this works out, stay tuned to hear more!
