it only takes ONE mom -- kisumu and nairobi, kenya
july 23-31, 2011
The trip of a lifetime: I traveled with 9 other bloggers, courtesy of ONE.org, to Kenya, to witness the issues of extreme poverty, and learn how they are being overcome –- from meeting with health care workers and women farmers, to learning about education issues in one of Africa’s largest urban slums. I hope to bring back images and stories of the boundless beauty of Kenya.
