Barbare gets its food aid

Just a quick note to confirm that the children at Barbare have now got their food aid. One square meal a day, like the other schools.

The funds raised by my locust appeal topped 10,800 pounds sterling, which is more than I would have imagined. It has made a big difference to the children of Soum and Oudalan, Burkina Faso's two poorest provinces. Thanks again to all who gave.
