Renee's Contact Info

I leave tomorrow @ 1:30pm from Madison. I'm excited...nervous...sick...Yes, I'm a bit under the weather. Thanks to this nice time of year (darn WI winter!), I'll be leaving with a bit of a cold. Luckily the pic here shows me in good health! One last picture before I go! My dear friend Edmond, originally from Togo, Africa, now residing in Madison took this picture of me!. Many of you have been asking me how to get in touch with me while I'm away and also how you might be able to help during my time in Kenya. I don't have a mailing address yet. Nor do I have a cell phone. I'm planning on getting these once I arrive in Nairobe. In the meantime, if you wish to contact me, I'm planning on having email access: renee_schuh@hotmail.com. If you wish to make a donation, you can do so on the GVN site (see Dec 8th post or my links to the right of the page) OR mail something directly to me. If you choose the latter, know that it will not be considered tax deductable. However, you are assured that your money will go to the kids with whom I work. It's like a gift...you are giving me a gift to give to them! I'm not going to leave my home address on this web site, but if you send me an email, I'll reply to you to give you my contact information!

Renee,

You may not get this until you unpack and set up in Africa but we want you to know how proud we are of what you are doing and wish you a wonderful journey. All of us here will be thinking about you and checking in here to read about what is happening there. Hopefully you will post some pictures so we can get a feel for where you are.

Best wishes to you and much love.

I am already missing you and you're not even to Detriot yet! I know the kids in Africa need you more than I do and that you are doing a wonderful wonderful thing. I can't help but think selfish thoughts of who's going to drink wine and eat chocolate with me?! Six months will go fast, I know. Have an awesome adventure and be safe. We do need you back in Madison in June. Love ya, Miss ya!

Hi Renee!
How are you? Do you still wear your leather jacket? You better take it off because it is not that cold there. I hope you don't suffer from flu anymore. Best of luck, Renee.
I almost forget, just want to let you know that my next eamil will be written in "Swahili", my native langage.
Edmond.
