Would you like to make a gift to Peter’s Hope that is specifically designated for a need at the school or Women’s Center?  When Carolyn was in Kenya the fall of 2021, she sat down with the teachers from both programs and asked what would make their program more effective.  Carolyn posed the question “What could you really use if only you had the funds?”.  At first they didn’t seem to understand the question!  Who could possibly dream about a wish list when you barely have the money for the basic supplies of pencils and paper?

With some encouragement, they began to dream-- ‘what could I use that would help make learning more successful for my students--both children and adults?’  And so emerged a list of items that may seem commonplace to us, but they are out of reach unless we help.

We will update this list regularly as items are purchased. Thank you!
