ADDRESS TO SEND CARDS TO ORPHANAGE

Hi everyone,
A few weeks ago Vero asked for an address where she could send cards to the orphanage in Kenya that TJ worked on a couple of summers ago. I think TJ mentioned in one of the chats that it'd be really cool to do that, so I reminded TJ about it and he gave the address and gave me permission to post the address here so people can send cards if they'd like. He thinks that this is a great idea so thanks Vero for remembering and asking about it! He was very excited about it. So, he said send them to the man that runs the orphanage and he can read them to the kids.
JOHNSON NYABWOGITE
Street: Olpopong, Street No: 46, P.O Box 258, Narok 20500, Kenya
Hopefully I will be able to send one and I'm going to say something on twitter because I think it'd be cool if more people can see this and send them. So those of you on there maybe when I tweet the link to this you can rt it for me, and get it out there.

TJ says there are 55 kids.
25 are boys ranging in age from 4 -15 years,
30 are girls ranging in age from 3 -16 years.

Sharon, is "Johnson Nyabwogite" the name of the person running the orphanage in Kenya? I'm just trying to decide what to write in my card and who / how to address them all.
Thanks!

Sherry, yes, he is the man that runs the orphanage. TJ said to send them to him and he'd read them to the kids.

Thanks, Sharon!
I thought I remembered you saying that, but I couldn't find mention of it and couldn't remember in which thread I'd read it so I couldn't verify for sure on my own.

Is the address for the orphans still current? I would like to get the children at my church to write to them. Thanks.

As far as I know it is, Kamalae....Sharon'll know.
Good to see you posting. Do introduce yourself and feel free to explore the site, maybe add to our Bones review section. It's always good to meet new TJ fans. Enjoy!

Has TJ mentioned if he's heard anything from them lately, Sharon? I sent them a card before the holidays (though I admit I don't know how long it takes the post office to deliver to that region from where I live). I'm just curious if they got the letters or cards any of us have sent. I hope so!
