Hey guys!
It is really great that we have been able to ship books to the Starehe Boys Centre, Starehe Girls Centre, and Red Rose School. It's nice to see some concrete results come from our recent community service. However, we cannot forget about the Olymic Primary School in Kibera. We have five boxes of books for this school, but not enough funds to ship the books.
Mr. Okoth already emailed a representative for the Call to Action Symposia at the World Bank about funds for shipping these books. However, we should meet to discuss further fundraising. We were fairly successful in raising funds last week at the attendance tables. I think bake sales this week (the last week of classes!) would also be really helpful. Can we meet briefly during break tomorrow in Mr. Okoth's classroom? Spread the word!

I think we can take a three-part strategy to be successful in this ...
a) give candy to folks in the crossroads during high-traffic times, like breaks and get donations
b) the bake sale approach
c) someone call UPS, FedEx or DHL and see if they can give us a shipping discount
