The leaflet, flyer…

November 26, 2008

I have made a flyer that goes with the DVD.

julkort_teresiah_i_kenya_sponsring_english (demands Word, Office)

Just print the flyers first page, and then print the second page on the back….

Fold the flyer so it will be easier to read and give along with the DVD. If you wish the DVD for Christmas please contact me ASAP, no later than 12 Dec.

I will send the DVD to you after that date as well, but dont count on that the letter comes in time for Christmas…  Maybe you are content with just sponsoring… Thats fine… Thanks a lot!

Vill du vara med på sponsringen? Lägg en lapp i mitt lärarfack! Jag ser framför mig många lappar med mindre summor som tillsammans betalar hennes skolavgift.

Din julklapp kommer att växa med åren då Teresiah minns att många händer hjälpte henne genom sista året i gymnasiet. Hon kommer att “pay it forward”

Updating the blog, pleased

November 25, 2008

Trying to make this blog as close to your heart as to your fingertips. I have today spent a few hours on going through things, clearifying etc.

I know that language is important, and I try hard to use the correct spellings etc.

I speak some Icelandic, my friends say, but I can not write it at all. I speak English but can only write some of it. Swedish gets me the balance. I speak and write some german. I only talk danish but only understand norwegian, I write neither of them. Finnish is another thing and I can only write Eei saa peitää, do not cover… Thats what it says on the electrical owens that are installed in many of the houses built in the 70´s

Be good, keep the balance…

Christmas approaching, gifts of concern

November 25, 2008

p10100541 Need help finding the right Christmas gift?

well for the ones that have everything already, child or grown up I suggest a more lasting gift. A gift to a third person who really needs the sponsorship.

Consider this! Teresiah Kihuyu needs help with her schoolfee, so that she can finish High school.

Those of you that know me, or my kin, will trust me, but of course the ones out there that do not have yet got to know me and what I stand for it must be harder. Please click through this blogg and learn for yourself. Im a teacher in Sweden www.student.hittahit.nu

No one can do all but all can do something. Thats my aim for christmas.

the letter from my friend Robert in Kenya with Teresiahs background:

“Teresiah Kihuyu, age 17yrs and in form 3. comes from a very poor family where the parents are self employed and have a small land where they grow cabbages to sell. They are 9 children in the family but only 3 of the children are in school because the parents can’t afford school fees. She was forced to stay home for about six months because of school fees. Her father’s inability was a result of a hospital bill he had to pay of the sister who had gotten an accident in school while doing an experiment in the laboratory. Despite her being sent home often she often does well in class”

If you sponsor this girl with an amount as small as 15 dollars, I will send you a DVD movie from my travelling in Kenya this year! the full amount of 15 dollars will go into the fund of sponsoring Teresiah and my contribution will be to copy the DVD and send it to you for free. My desire is both to help Teresiah, but also to spread knowledge about differences in the world. You will have a good educational time watching the film. If you wish to sponsor, but dont want the film, thats fine as well of course.

Lin, one of my readers, have got the DVD sent to her and of what I hear from her she is very pleased.

My mom has told me to write proper English on this blog and I do try, please forgive me for not writing as well as you do.

Please ask me any questions you like. I don’t have to publish the comment if you do not like! Please communicate!

Teresiah needs about 30 X 15 dollars to help her not getting kicked out of school after Christmas.

(The picture is me pointing at Kenya on a plastic globe that I sent to Robert and his works school. The only globe they had at the school was a smaller, also inflatable.)

My experience of Kenya, linc!

November 10, 2008

Heres my schedule, I wrote it during the trip as a memory

http://www.hittahit.nu/kenya/kenya2008/rememberthetriptokenya.htm

Quite hectic, but Oh what a 10 days…. I have friends down in Kenya longing for others to come, and they will show you around. Organizing both housing and transport, all safe.

Its hard to leave Kenya behind, once there, one has to bear that in mind, but thats life isnt it.

First DVD reached USA
