Prosperity with Dignity

After publishing last week's post, I was in touch again with Kathleen Colson. She forwarded the address for her blog -- which our readers may well enjoy!

Kathleen makes two or three extended trips to Northern Kenya each year on behalf of the BOMA Fund. She began writing about her current trip on October 27 and has been posting regularly since. Her descriptions of the living of the BOMA
mission and its new tag line -- prosperity with dignity -- and of the work of the Rural Entrepreneur Access Project (REAP) are compelling. Her post "Swimming with the Crocodiles" struck a chord with me given my concerns, expressed in this blog, about the potential for unintended negative consequences when we act on charitable impulses. And I know my fellow travelers, in particular, will enjoy reading about familiar people and places.
