We are deeply saddened to report that SHARE Board Member Lou Bassik has passed away on Tuesday, April 1, 2008.
Lou served as our beloved treasurer at SHARE and was an invaluable member of our Board of Directors. He was committed to our goal of helping Kenyan orphans who have less than nothing. His friendly attitude, enthusiastic demeanour, and his infectious laughter will be sorely missed.
In honor of his dedication to our cause, SHARE will plant a Neem tree on the shore of Lake Victoria in Kenya where it will provide shade for our orphans as they play.

Over the last 2 years, we have significantly raised the quality of communication and administration of the SHARE Orphan Sponsorship [SOS] program thanks to an informative web site, a high tech system to administer SOS, our dedicated all-volunteer team, and most importantly, your continued generosity and support. But the beginning of 2008 finds SOS facing a serious crisis brought on by continued devaluation of the once mighty US Dollar coupled with the rising costs of schooling and boarding in Kenya.
