Teams from the United States were at
TEMAK last summer to see for themselves the circumstances affecting girls
in the slums of Kisumu with a view to co-operation in TEMAK’s activities.
Brian Holloway, Joanne Clerk and daughter traveled with Joab Othatcher of
TEMAK to the slums and helped buy medicine for some of the ailing people
they found. They encountered many with HIV/Aids related complications but
who currently are not under medication due to extreme poverty.
Brian Bizini, from California, came to Kenya with Gordon and Carol
Kennedy. The three are members of Rotary Club Modesto, Calif. Not only did
they promise assistance following their trips to the slums, Brian took
with him lots of crafts work from TEMAK. He intends to establish a
distribution channel for crafts in the United States.
Sale of crafts is a key source of funds for TEMAK’s community programmes.
