Supplies for School Fee Recipients










MWEEP board members are filling bags for the girls in Kenya who are recipients of school fee support.

The girls had told Loanna when she was in Kenya that there are supplies that they lack when at boarding school. The bags have been donated by Lululemon Athletica for two years now.
What the girls said they lack are: toothpaste, toothbrush, soap and pads. They will miss class if they don't have pads. The pads are bought in Kenya and added to their bags. Due to generous donors, we have been able to add some extras.

This year a group of women in Kitsap County who quilt and sew have donated 100 pillowcases for Kenya. Each girl will receive two pillowcases, one for her dorm room bed and one to give to her mother. The mothers help with the cost-share portion of the school fees.

The Flip Flop Shop donated shoes and flip flops from their Soles4Souls program.
MWEEP is grateful to all who have sent toiletries and supplies for the girls.
