How cute is this!

Proudly wearing new school uniforms at Chipulukusu
Aren't they adorable?  Somehow, someway, some of the caretakers of the students at the school in Chipulukusu managed to scrape together money for uniforms.  Many of the kids will wear their uniforms every day until they totally wear out.  Having uniforms is extremely important to school children because they visually proudly proclaim "Hey, I'm going to school!"    Since we do not want a school with "haves" and "have nots," we now have the task of finding a way to provide uniforms for the little ones who absolutely cannot purchase one even though it only costs about $7 or $8.  Due to the initiative of the caregivers, however, the proverbial train has left the station and some of our kids now have the dreamed of uniform.  Now the goal is to get uniforms for the rest.
