Location: New York City, NY
Flat is packed and ready to fly tomorrow! He’ll be boarding a 6:30pm plane in New York City’s JFK International Airport. 11 hours and 5,000 hours later he will be in Cairo, Egypt! After three days there, he’ll be headed to Kenya for the summer.
He’s proud to be sporting the green, black, and red of Kenya’s flag, as well as the yellow of the logo of the organization he will be working with this summer: Kijana Educational Empowerment Initiative. The “Kijana” across his chest is not only the name of the organization he’ll be working with, but also the Swahili word for Youth. In many ways, Youth not just a time of life, but a way and quality of life – the place where creativity, imagination, idealism, and fun comes from. The world needs more Youth, and Kenya needs more Kijana.
Stay tuned for more….
