Harambee

On Saturday our school held a Harambee. The word harambee means to pull together and it is the national motto of Kenya. The event is a fundraiser and parents, villagers, local officials and guests come and donate money to the cause. Our school was holding the harambee in order to raise funds to finish building two new classrooms, a new dorm, new bathrooms and latrines and hopefully paying for the cost of having electricity hooked up to the school. I'll describe the event more later, but here is a video of the girls performing for the guests of honor at the harambee. They performed a traditional luo song that was accompanied by dance, they did an excellent job.! Hope you enjoy!
