Fadhili Trust

Image
This week we have been spending our time at this organization called Fadhili Trust. This is an amazing organization which helps local communities and people who are in tough situations. They help people through village savings and loan associations ( type of micro-finance). They do this to help people create business and increase income. Our first day with them we had an introduction of the organization and then we visited a small private school. The visit was super fun because they stopped all the classes to meet us. Everyone was so welcoming and we were given the honour to talk with the students in their classes which was really cool because they had so many good questions about Canada.  After the school visit we went and had 2 home visits of 2 of the  beneficiaries of  Fadhili.

Off To The Airport

I cannot believe the trip is over... It went by so fast, yesterday literally feels like we just arrived in Kenya. But I guess time flies when you are having fun.

My goodness it has been awhile... I have not done a blog post since October... But my life has not been that exciting to write more blog posts lol. Anyways I am back and I hope to blog more! I want to strengthen my writing and express it on this blog.  I want to write about things going on in my life, adventures I go on, lists, future goals, advice and most importantly poetry. First I want to use this blog as a way to publish my poetry. Over the past few months I have been in a class called writers craft and it is given me the opportunity to write in many different styles and from this class I fell in love with poetry. Poetry is such beautiful way to express and to share how you feel. Poetry is an escape, a way to put words to feelings, a beautiful portrait of art. Poetry is a lifeline to me now and I cannot wait to show it here.  Although it will be nerve wracking to put my thoughts out in the open to others... art is art and it cannot be judged. Secondly: It's the s...
