The Mango Tree Kids


After an amazing clinic day, we were exhausted. But we all wanted to see the infamous Mango Tree Kids. They are the children that live in the slums of Kamwenge. The irony is that most of the areas I have seen are so poor that I’m not sure what classifies it as “the slums.” Anyway, all of the kids were waiting for us under the mango tree. It was dusk and it was a beautiful picture as we drove up. They sang us a few songs and we handed out the last of our candy, beanie babies, and clothing.
