Today, after many weeks of pulling our hair out and working with possibly the most patient man on the planet, we will finally be launching our website!

Harambee is a Kenyan tradition of community self-help events, e.g. fundraising or development activities. Harambee literally means "all pull together" in Swahili, and is also the official motto of Kenya and appears on its coat of arms. Harambee events may range from informal affairs lasting a few hours, in which invitations are spread by word of mouth, to formal, multi-day events advertised in newspapers. These events have long been important in parts of East Africa, as ways to build and maintain communities. We have titled our newsletter, which we will send out on the 31st of a month (as an attribute?? to the proverb number 31), with the same name.
