April 1, 2010 Dear Friends, We have just completed the first term of the Kenya school year. I am pleased to report that we are currently assisting 189 children and youth from disadvantaged backgrounds. Of these 189 students, 145 have been reintegrated with their families and are being sponsored by St John Bosco in local primary, secondary, vocational and post-secondary schools. We now have a record number of 8 students who are pursuing diploma level courses in such demand fields as medicine, education, electrical engineering and construction. The remaining 44 children are living in our residential facilities and are either in formation to enter the formal school system or are attending the local public primary school. The children who live at our Center spend weekends and school term breaks with a parent or guardian in order to maintain vital links with their home communities. I want to thank our benefactors for making a real difference in the lives of the children and youth assisted by St. John Bosco. Wishing you a Blessed Easter, Yours in Christ - Russ Brine, Project Manager
