The Critical Role of the Local Committees

On October 26, 2012 By Harry and Annie Bergshoeff

It is Friday evening and we are in Voi.  Voi is located along the Nairobi/Mombasa highway and is somewhat central for activities in one of our three counties – Taita-Taveta.  We arrived here yesterday and are spending five days in this area – visiting some water pan sites and attending three food distributions before we head further to the coast to visit the other two counties.

Don’t look now, but last week we said we would be describing the various steps involved in a food distribution, in some detail.  After reviewing our previous blogs we realized that we have already spent considerable time discussing food distributions and it would be repetitious for us to do so again.  As we prepare for round two of the distributions which occur next week, we will no doubt be commenting further on some of the things we experience during this upcoming round.

Evaluating the Impact

On October 19, 2012 By Harry and Annie Bergshoeff

How will we measure the success of this project?

We have arrived in Nairobi after an interesting and encouraging few days in post distribution meetings in Mombasa. On Monday, we met with the three Relief Coordinators of World Renew’s partner, Pwani Christian Community Services.  During these meetings we  received and provided reports about the various aspects of the first food distribution. We were all greatly encouraged by the sharing and learning that happened there. One of the objectives for that day, as IRMs, was to set the schedule for the next distribution.  After that was done, we spent a day  meeting with the suppliers and inspectors to see if they could also honour our proposed schedule.  We praise God for the positive response!
