BLOGS FROM KIBERA
In an effort to reinforce the bridge between CFK supporters like you with CFK staff and volunteers on the ground in Kenya, we're excited to bring you Blogs from Kibera. Here you'll find links to blogs created by volunteers, Summer Fellows, CFK-Kenya staff and others chronicling the work we do and the impact it has in the community.
If you recently visited us in Kibera or plan to visit us soon, and you would like to share your CFK experience on our blog, please contact us at cfk@unc.edu.
