Shout Outs

Shout Out to the awesome people at Cal Map (www.ucmap.org) who independantly  gave us an outstanding amount of their personal equipment and uniforms, which we were able to hand-deliver to George and his studio. We really appreciate what you donated and so has George. A  letter he personally wrote and dedicated to you guys is posted below. Be sure to read it! – Mae

Hi

RE: WAITHAKA TAEKWONDO CLUB- NOTE OF APPRECIATION.

We the Waithaka Taekwondo Club led by our head coach George and the technical team leader Moses would sincereely thank you for you kind gesture.We would also like to thank Mr.Sam Hartwell for taking responsibilty and ensuring tht all the equipment reached Nairobi.For this we wish him well and hope he continues with his benovolent heart,

Secondly we also like to thank each and every person who individually donated anything towards this noble cause.We are humbled that the story from a ten year old moved their hearts and made them make some impact on some ones life.We would like to assure them that their donations are being put into good use and are making a real change in the lifes of many children here in Waithaka village in Nairobi Kenya.We pray that their generosity will be rewarded in great abundance.

Lastly we would like to assure you and other donors that the equipment is making a great impact on the development of Taekwondo in our locality. We feel that you involvement both materially and spiritually will really help us achieve our goals and make our community a much better place.

Once more as we conclude we say “Asante sana” and may God bless you abundantly and we look forward to our future cooperation with you and other people of goodwill.

Yours faithfully,

George

When we delivered all of your things, we videotaped the studio’s reception. Watch this video of George showing his students what we brought. The students where so excited they where screaming. This is awesome guys — thank you so much!!!

Another Shout Out to my family — my aunt Cha-Cha for helping me design this website and my brother, mother and father who encouraged me to take action and hand-delivered the donated Tae Kwon Do equipment to George’s studio!

  1. How amazing to see the joy your organization has brought to these people. What a great think you have done. As UC MAP participants, we watched as the Hartwell family collected and transported 3 enormous bags of equipment. The movement has begun!!
