Kenya Kids

In knowledge I grow…
I wish they could too.
I wish they could be like us.
But no one is making a fuss.
Us, the Bell school, try to support them in many ways.
We supply them with $350 a year and this isn’t a phase.
A long term commitment, we will never give up.
And that is a reason we should keep our heads up.
No one really knows who they are.
We know ‘em as the Kenya Kids.
What do you know ‘em as???
Faces on a display board.
That could so easily be ours.
Make a change in someone’s life.
