Action Two Africa would like to use this update to send a big THANK YOU to GlobalGiving! Earlier this month we received an email notifying us that we were selected to receive a $1,000 microgrant from GlobalGiving! This grant was given to us to “weather the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic” and we are so thankful for this support.
Life has been challenging lately in Bungoma, Kenya. Many are impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic that is sweeping the country, which has only created more food insecurity, and a lack of access to basic supplies like soap, masks, and sanitizers. This microgrant could not have come at a better time. After discussing with Humphrey the best way to use the funds, we have decided to help families within the Bungoma community by providing masks, soap, and food. Additionally, we plan on providing a few families with enough supplies to start their own small business, which will not only create a sustainable income for those families, but it will also provide community members access to needed supplies! Thank you GlobalGiving for your generosity, continued support, and for encouraging us during this difficult time.
We also want to give a shout out to all of our donors. We know this is a challenging time for everyone, and we appreciate your continued support and encouragement! Thank you!
