Congratulations to Naretu Academy in Kenya!!!!

For those who follow the Art blog, you know hard hard we have been working to raise money for Sabore and the new school in Kenya! 

Well, today is the day!  Today was the very first day of school for the children at Naretu Academy. 

Below are pictures shared by both Therese and Sabore!  I hope that sometime today you send a prayer or a positive thought their way and to the children who I am sure were both anxious and excited to begin their very first day of school! 

All of the money the 5th graders raised went to the building of the kitchen, which is almost completed.  And all of the money from the sale of the bracelets and keychains went to school supplies for the children and the school. 

Therese took with her on this trip to Kenya the artworks and notes from our SFC 5th grade students from a few years ago to hang in the brand new school (more pics to come). 

I hope these pictures bring you some joy today on our first day back!
