Friday February 29th

An unforgettable farewell party was organized by the ICRH colleagues. It started with a visit to the Baobab boys orphanage which needed to be cleaned. All 85 ICRH employees (and Niels)  worked with great motivation to clean the compound, cook lunch, wash the walls and floors, clean the bedrooms, and scrub the toilets. What a difference!

After a few hours of work, a donation was given to the management of the orphanage consisting of beans, meal, cooking oil and other supplies.

From the orphanage, the busload moved on to the Bamburi butterfly farm for lunch and speeches. More compliments than earned where given to Stanley for his 3,5 years of work at ICRH by Dr Marcel (incoming Country Director ICRH), Mama Ruth (Family Health International), Dr Waudo (Provincial AIDS and STI Coordinator), Dr Othigo (Chief Administrator CPGH), and Dr Mandaliya (Secretary to the ICRH Board). As SUPER-SURPRISE Dr Joseph Vyankandondera came from Kigali, Rwanda just to celebrate the day. It was unforgettable and I (Stanley) would like to thank all my Friends at ICRH for organizing this incredible day. I will miss you all!
