Met with the contractor today...the price of the new home for Karim Orphanage will be about $30,000.00. A bit more than we planned but the original house plan was smaller. The new home will house up to 50 orphans, a bed for each...no more 3 to a bed.; 3 bathrooms, 3 showers for each of the boys and girls inside...not 1 bathroom outide in the dark; a kitchen with food storage; a dining area with tables and chairs...no more eating on the floor; a large lot with room for the children to play, a garden, laundry area, water well, chicken house, cow and goat; complete with solar power so they will not be in the dark past 6pm.
This is going to be an amazing and safe new home for these beautiful Orphans. A deposit has been made to the contractor so that he can start this saturday. The official `sod turning`ceremony will be saturday as the start of the New Karim Care Centre....WOW...how exciting.
So we are two thirds there with the cost. We need a little more help to complete this project...so, for those of you who would like to donate, your help would be greatly appreciated. Please contact me either on this blog or by email at lizkinnell@hotmail.com
WOW! Linda! I'm amazed how God laid it on your heart to do this awesome work for these orphans! I hope we can do the same for the orphans in Kenya!!
