Kathleen and Hunter:

As you know, my family lived in Kenya when I was growing up. We love the
country and make every effort to visit as often as possible. During our most
recent visit in July, my father and I spent a few hours in Kibera with Ken
Okoth, the founder of a small organization that supports a range of
education projects throughout the slum. It is an understatement to say that
we were impressed by Ken and the power of his small foundation. While we
have spent a lot of time in and around Nairobi, we have always been
intimidated and overwhelmed by Kibera. Our visit with Ken really struck a
nerve because we finally met someone who has a genuine connection with the
community and has made a selfless commitment to improve the possibilities
for children who are growing up in his old neighborhood.

I hope you will be able to join us on November 13 to meet Ken and learn
about his work. Ken's personal story is inspirational and his work has an
enormous and lasting impact on many, many kids who have absolutely nothing
in terms of shelter, personal security, nutrition, health care, and
education. Attached below is a save-the-date for the briefing event Lisa
Bernstein and I are co-hosting for small group of friends. This is NOT a
fundraiser. We're not asking people for donations and our guest list for
this event is modest - please do not share this invitation with others.

I hope you'll be able to make it - Ken is an amazing guy.

Rob

p.s. Kathleen - thanks for hosting a fun dinner last night. Hunter: hope
you enjoyed the game(s) - since you weren't there, we spent most of our time
talking about you :)
