On Monday, 3/16/09, we started off the week with an official visit from a representative from the Embassy of Japan in Kenya. We were very happy to show the progress that has been made at our hospital and to provide the history of how our hospital began. The official reported to us that she was very impressed with how organized we are and said in comparison to other projects she had visited in the community, ours really stood out. We were invited to submit a letter of intent to the Embassy of Japan in Kenya about how we are seeking funding to construct our own building. The hospital has been renting since it's inception and we would really like to have the opportunity to reinvest the money spent on rent each month into improving our facility. Land has been donated for us to build on, but unfortunately if we do not begin using it this year, we risk the land being taken away and designated for something else.
If anyone reading our blog is interested in supporting our hospital building project, we would welcome the opportunity to talk with you. We are very hopeful that the kind people at the Embassy of Japan in Kenya believe in what we are doing and the benefit we bring our community and will help us achieve our goal. We have learned through the years that progress comes when everyone joins hands together in support. We are confident that others will continue to recognize and help us realize our vision for a healthy community.
