Crossroads Leader Volunteers in Kenya If you read the newsletter regularly, you know about Maranatha Volunteers International, the non-profit that created Crossroads Senior Living. In July, Cory Strauch, the Executive Director at our Lakewood, Colorado facility, along with his friend Mandy Rolfe, joined a team of volunteers to help bring Maranatha’s Kajiado School project nearer to its completion. The team of 36 plus volunteers laid block, painted, and added their helping hands to whatever needed doing. Kajiado was created to help young Masai girls escape the traditional culture of childhood marriage and genital mutilation and serves both girls and boys from the community. Cory says he and Mandy learned to be thankful and learned that helping others filled their hearts with joy. They were very impressed with the sacrifice that so many have made to make Maranatha a company that really helps people where they are.
Maranatha’s projects are funded through local community and international donor support. Learn more at w w w . m a r a n a t h a . o r g or by visiting the Maranatha channel. Just scan this code.
