Our friend Heidi is about to go over to Kenya for an indefinite amount of time. She will be at Naomi's Village, learning swahili, being a "Mom" to orphans and trying to implement some ideas to help turn the economy around.

Stats from the website:
UNICEF estimates there are presently 25 million orphaned children in Sub-Saharan Africa. In Kenya alone there are currently 2 million orphans out of the 12 million children (16% of all children under age 15). 700 children a day become orphaned in Kenya – 1 every 2 minutes!
This is an awesome video about Naomi's Village. Joshua's story is heartbreaking, but he now has a better life at Naomi's Village.
