Penpals? From Atlanta to Kenya and back…
Warren Woodruff is an Atlanta-based classical pianist. he also teaches piano to kids from age 2 to 92 – really he can teach anyone how to play the piano but prefers to begin with children at a very early age. so when he heard about the library in Karateng’ he signed up to do something to get the books to Kenya. After all, early reading is key to academic success…
Dr. Warren sees a similarity between children in Atlanta and children in Kenya. They are all interested in learning and it is the responsibility of the adults around them to show them how to do it. even further, he thinks that the children in his studio will be interested in engaging with the Kenyan kids on a personal level while working to get the needed books to Kenya. so here’s his plan – it’s quite simple. he will organize a fundraising drive where each of his students circulate a form to receive donations of any amount to friends and family. Participating students will receive an address of one of the kids in Kenya who will use the library and they will begin a penpal relationship. There is no telling how much the penpals will learn from each other but we suspect that their worlds will open up in ways that are unimaginable.
The fundraising program will culminate at the Annual Fall Recital in September, but the relationships between the Karateng’ and the Atlanta kids can continue forever!
Inspired? what can you do to help get the books to Karateng’ – Nyabera Village?
