Set you Eyes on our Holy Milk Cow Prize!

I may be prejudice, but I think our milk cow is very very very good looking! I am just so grateful to donors, the Quest (Shannon and Julie), and the local partners (Jerusha, a local teacher Bruno Kapinga, and our Wagumu counterparts) for all of the efforts to make this project run smoothly in such a short time.

As one of the Quest donors stated, "Our project is Moovelous!"

Please see the link below from The Quest 2011 as some initial information they have gathered to tell you about the success of the Holy Milk Cow Fund!

The Quest

We bought a pregnant milk cow today!

YEA WE DID iT!!!!! Details to come! Compassionate Backpackers are having the adventure of their lives! And enjoying every minute! Let's just say their was a enormous celebration in the village today! AND with the money leftover we were able to buy a roof for a classroom for Wagumu Camp to teach health, reading, and life skills!

When "Holy Milk Cows Fly"...to DC!

Shannon and Juls are on their way to Dulles Airport in DC, a short pit stop on their way to Tanzania! I am set to meet them to go over the details of the Holy "Milk" Cow adventure. Stay tuned. I think there will be alot of surprises! While I wait for them at the hotel, I will think of random swahili words that relate to the Holy Milk Cow Fund 2011. yep. I am bored...
