Most of the 410 Bridge staff has been down in Daytona Beach this week working at BigStuf Camp. It has been great to see all the students and youth leaders that took part in our THINK campaign. We don’t have a final count yet, but we sold over a couple of thousand bracelets to help with educational needs in Kenya. Each person that bought a bracelet got one that was signed by a Kenyan student and they in turn got to sign one to be sent to Kenya. Here is a picture of the bracelets we’re sending to Kenya after just one week! We’ll post the final count soon!
Learnings From Kiu, Kenya
Our partnership with Kiu community started way back in 2009 making it one of the first communities to partner with the 410 Bridge since its inception in Kenya in 2006.
At the 410 Bridge, we work through the community leaders who ensure continuity of the community’s development even after graduation. During our partnership journey, we walk alongside indigenous community leaders and church leaders as they mobilize and unify the community to participate in their own development – shifting their perspectives and owning the solutions.
