Sunday, November 30, 2008. I have mentioned several times before about getting involved in helping some causes here in Kenya. My work's website has recently added a DONATE option under "Quick Links" at www.ografoundation.org. As always, if there are any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me. Saturday, November 29, 2008. At one point last week we even looked into ordering a honey-baked ham from the States and having it mailed here. We figured the Kenya Bureau of Standards wouldn't let a ham ...

Dan in Kenya: March 2009
http://afridan.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
Saturday, March 21, 2009. Around 7am I was stable enough that they let me go home for a few hours before coming back for the test results. When I went back the doctor told me that I have malaria AND a bacterial infection. It's kind of frustrating since I take my malaria pills every day, I sleep under a mosquito net and I only drink boiled water. They prescribed a few different medicines and I'm feeling better now.

Thursday, February 12, 2009. This semester instead of taking classes, I will be conducting research from January until the beginning of April. I have returned to my internship at OGRA Foundation in Kisumu and have decided to do my research through OGRA. As a Community Health student, I wanted an internship that would allow me to work in the field on the grassroots. As I said, our feeding center currently provides for 36 children - there is obviously a need to expand the program. In the initial reading 14...

Dan in Kenya: January 2009
http://afridan.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
Wednesday, January 21, 2009. In the days leading up to the Inauguration, the different Kenyan news channels would feature at least 10 minutes of Barack Obama stories each night. In some ways, I think Kenyans are more informed about American politics than most Americans. Yesterday walking around Kisumu you could feel the energy in the air. The city of Kisumu had made elaborate plans for an Inauguration party at the Jomo Kenyatta Sports Grounds, a large open area with a stage, near the center of town.
