• There is no place like home, but Betty found a second home with two people who were willing to share their lives and work with her.

    Sr. Freda, a courageous woman who developed a free hospital near Kitale because she couldn't bear seeing people crawl on their hands and knees to some distant clinic and Emmanuel, a Maasai man who had to sell his two bottom teeth for a cow to put him through high school. He returned to his village and built a school for orphaned and special needs children in the mountainous region of Kilgoris. This is their story and the story of the children they are helping.

Coming Soon!

Starting March 10, Betty’s adventures in Kenya will appear here every week, interspersed with stories written by students at some schools she visited while there.  You can subscribe to this blog by clicking on the email subscription box at the right.

    I feel I am living your experience! Beautifully written, with such fresh, very personal impressions. If I can’t get to Kenya, at least I will have your memoir. Write more!!!!
