High Cloud Foundation - Because Dreams Come True

High Cloud will be providing support to children and the community through presenting educational projects and building infrastructure, as well as providing much-needed school supplies.  Teams of High Clouders will be providing their time and talent to help the local community by helping construct a classroom for the rescued school children, as well as visiting the Kenya museums.  A more detailed description of each day of the mission is below.  

Tentative dates for the trip are September 11- September 21.  Both flights are over night, thus the trip will be 12 days.  As of July 2, 2010, round trip flights from Washington DC to Nairobi cost $1420.  The sooner that one can commit to the trip to Kenya , the cheaper the flight will be.  Food and lodging costs are estimated at $60 for 10 days. Additional costs would include a Safari, should you want to go on one.  Please contact Rachel Herbers at rachel@highcloud.org, and cc: info@highcloud.org should you want to join us for the experience of a lifetime!
