I got word today that the $1500 we raised for the Muchui Women's Group through the sale of aprons has purchased 5 water cachement tanks for members of the group. We got an e-mail from Farmers Helping Farmers with pictures of each member who received one of our tanks and their names. I am thrilled to be able to physically see the outcome of our fundraiser, and am so proud to have been able to directly impact the ability of these women to provide food for their families. One thing we learned over the summer is that the key to food security is water. I can't wait to get back to Kenya to see them and meet these women.
