BIG day today!
We arranged a meeting between elected people from the streets and the head of childrens department at City Hall. We got a chance to let them know how life is on the streets and how many things were happening that shouldn’t happen. It felt good that the children and street mothers finally got a chance to speak their mind and get some answers.
Now we will continue having meetings to see what we can do about the violence against the children and look into project of organizing the communication between the City Council and the street family in a better way.

Update on Lazarus: He has been to the hospital twice now after his accident on Thursday. He is going back to the dental clinic tomorrow. He is still having problem eating solid food, and has to eat porridge or soup. He has a wound on his jaw that is leaking of fluids which seem to be hurting a lot. He is in good spirit and am trying the best he can, although he do get tired and dizzy easily.
He has been provided with the medicine he need and we will see after his visit to the hospital tomorrow how we will proceed…

Please, do contact us if you are willing to donate something so that we can give him the proper care and medicine.

One of the boys in town got hit by a car today and was taken to the hospital. He has been taken care of and he’ going back on Monday to get the results of the CT scan and also visit the dental clinic. His jaw might be broken and he may need surgery.
Other than the 2 SoulKids staff, 19 of his friends also came to the hospital to support him. They demanded that their friend got the right treatment, and they all stayed there with him all day until he was done. That’s what I call friendship! Instead of trying to get food for the day, they were all there to support their friend! Now that is AMAZING! No wonder they call themselves a family! \u003C3

There are many reasons why the children are living on the streets of Nairobi. One of the reasons are that the children have gotten lost from their families and can’t find their way back home.
Yesterday was a good day for SoulKids when we helped an 11 year old boy to find his way back to his family. There was a happy reunion with the boy and his parents, who had been trying to find him for over a year :)
More about this story will come in our newsletter for April on our website…

Going to pick two of the boys from town to stay with us for a week. It’s not easy for them now that the city council has stepped up the “game of cat and mouse…”
