Our 1997 Toyota Land Cruiser has reached the time when its parts are worn, and it is no longer economically sound to maintain.
Decision made.
Urukundo has a new-to-us vehicle.
It is a Toyota RAV4. Gas mileage is better; tires are less expensive. It will be used for short runs and two-person transport. I would have preferred a blue one, but silver is ok.
A special volunteer team has committed to raising funds to pay for a minibus that would hold up to 12 people and luggage for picking up volunteers at the airport. We are grateful for that promise.
Carol Falke, president of the Hope Made Real International Board, was the first to be picked up in the new RAV4.
Carol arrived at Urukundo bag and baggage on April 14. We look forward to her visit every year. This is Year 13. She missed one year because of the Covid-19 pandemic. She brings lots of goodies for the village and the school.
