Al and Karen Penrose are an amazing couple. He is a provincial police officer working in Sudan with our colleague Ed and she is a school principal in Barrie, Ontario. Together, Al and Karen are striving to make a significant change for the people of Kuber William, a small village in Sudan.
When Al told Karen about The Bridge School, she started thinking about ways that the Monsignor Clair Catholic School, where she is the principal, could help. They decided to involve their school and community in a number of fundraising initiatives, including a book fair, teacher vs. student hockey game, bake sale and movie night. They are hoping to raise $8,000, enough money to drill a well at The Bridge School (currently there are no water sources near the school).

On behalf of the kids at Monsignor Clair and everyone at the Obakki Foundation, thank you!
