Friday Evening 1st June – Whilst at home in May
the youth team my Brother coaches collected football kit for the Polytechnic
and Orphanage. The Poly already had theirs but I had held back giving the
Orphanage kids their kit as I knew there was a football tournament looming. The
time had now come as the matches were this Sunday. So tonight the manager and I
gathered the kids together and I distributed 20 shirts and other bits and
pieces. I had held back 6 specific shirts. Once the initial excitement had died
down and there were a few disappointed faces, I returned to my house to
retrieve the final 6, all Manchester United shirts. These are prized
possessions in Kenya as they are passionate about the Premier League and
especially Manchester United. The disappointed few were suddenly the envy of
the others!
I only wish my words could convey how happy this gesture made to these kids. Thanks Bro and co from all the little stars here.
