I just got back from a three and a half weeks in Kenya with my dear friends who run "Kenya Keys." An experience in rural Africa is unlike any other! I find it almost impossible to put into words what I saw and felt. This photo sums it all up for me.
The extreme poverty. People living in much the same manner they did a hundred years ago; mud huts with no running water or electricity. This beautiful little girl gazing cautiously at the first white people she has ever seen. I wonder what kind of life she'll have. Will she get an education? Or will she be married at a young age and become just another illiterate woman? I am hopeful for her and that is why I support Kenya Keys.
In this little corner of the vast continent of Africa they are making a difference and giving many an education - a weapon for the future.
