“ I am good, I am great” 🎼 🎼 🎼
That was the song that the children sang to us in English at the completion of a successful first day distribution in Togo! We are thrilled to be back in Togo with the ADES - Togo (Association Developpement Enfance et Social) group after a gap of a few years. And they didn’t disappoint - 125 children experiencing poverty received the gift of a bedkit to ensure a good night’s sleep!
We also were able to visit 2 homes of children in the village of Bolougan who received a bedkit today. Here we witnessed a co-op where they made clay pots and bricks. They had a 300 meter deep well which supplied the village with water, saving them having to walk several miles to get water from the river!
The first house was made of clay and housed a family of 8 which included a young girl. The second house was of a single mother and her 12 year old boy and what we noticed right away were sayings on the wall in chalk. The young boy was a big fan of soccer and we knew that because of what was written.
We are off to a great start and thankful for the donors and the smiles that we received today!
