THE HISTORY OF KESFA

James Wuod-Maggero announced in the daily press and called a meeting for those who were interested to start an association for exchange between kenyans and swedes. The association was foundet and it took the name KENYA SWEDEN FRIENDSHIP ASSOCIATION - KESFA. James Wuod-Maggero was elected as chairman.

There came a letter from Rangala Baby Home. Help was needed with cloth, toys and money to help the children in need. The home was run by dutch nuns without help from the goverment.
