You're Filling Their Homes With Food

By Merry Broughal | Project Leader

It’s not easy to be a widow, an elderly widow, and take on the task of raising your orphaned grandchildren. Too old or too frail to go out and work is just a fact of life. Valid concerns about how to provide food for the family make life even more difficult.

However, thanks to you and with your support, you help to bring food to 33 families every month, plus other families in need of food. Thank You!

It is always a joy to deliver these food packages. The widows and the children are just so grateful knowing that food is filling their homes for another month.

Providing the food brings families relief as well as better health. No more begging in the village for food or boiling wild weeds to have something to eat. What a great blessing this is to these families.

YOU are helping to make this possible. Thank you so much. Your support is greatly appreciated and sustaining lives in Kenya. Thank you!
