Second Completed One Dollar Project

SAMBURU VILLAGE


On Saturday February 9th, 2008 - Kazumichi Shiojiri on behalf of Africa Children Education Fund delivered 24 packs of unga and a box of biscuits to the Samburu village people. This donation was made possible by 28 individuals each donating $1 and working together. unga is a maize powder that is used to make ugali - Kenyan staple food.


The Samburu elders and children were very grateful to receive such a wonderful donation and send their thanks to every person who donated!!



The Samburu tribe used to be a part of the Maasai tribe - until it split about 500 years ago. Their lifestyle to us would be considered ancient in many ways - but they are a fascinating, beautiful tribe and it was a pleasure spending time with them while in Kenya! I'm very grateful we were able to help them.
