donation to kenya

in may 2011 kidzeco were approached by local fundraisers who were raising money for the kosele community in kenya. we were happy to donate clothes, shoes etc. and will continue to support this great cause in the future. the picture shows vernon who benefitted from the kidzeco donation. more information on the fundraising can be found at hope and kindness
