New Classroom in Lare, Kenya

Students Study in New Classroom

One awardee, The Mercy Project of Lare, Kenya, directed by Sister Rose Wangui, VHM of Georgetown Visitation, has implemented their gift by building a classroom for the education of young women. While the classroom still needs to be fine tuned it is already in use! Join us in rejoicing that these young women of Kenya can look forward to a blessed future of study and learning together!
