Nature's cleanup crew: grass brooms and trained hands Hi, Friend, Ugandan children master the art of sweeping with these short, handcrafted tools at an early age. They make it look effortless, while I've yet to perfect the technique! Made from local grasses, these brooms require a practiced hand and a bent back to clean everything from indoor floors to outdoor pathways like the Mustard Seed campus entrance.
These aren't just cleaning tools—they're symbols of friendship—I've received several, usually with my name woven into the handle. Whether sweeping the campus walkways or the classroom floors, students are participating in a tradition and caring for shared spaces.
Gratefully,
Elaine P.S. Three weeks from now, I'll be sending Foto Friday from Uganda—just before the Blessing Day for the Primary-7 leavers. There's still time to send something for your special Mustard Seed student. |
