The photo above, titled, “Peace Wanted Alive” was taken by Transafrika board member Steve Baroch on a trip to Kibera, the slums of Nairobi. Steve and Patrick Amisi distributed 1200 pounds about 540 kg of books, medical supplies, books, clothes, school supplies and computers to projects in Kenya. These boys, in one of the schools Transafrika supports, are reading a book that Steve and Patrick brought to them. This photo has been selected “Best Photo of 2009” by the publication “The Rotarian” which has almost 500,000 readers. To read more about Steve and Patrick’s trip, please click here.
