The second annual ACCES Sustainers Circle luncheon was, by all accounts, a smashing success. 210 guests enjoyed a delicious lunch sponsored by Scotiabank, VanCity, and John S. Keenlyside & Company Investment Council. After a moving program of stories, video and presentations, guests pledged over $75,000 over the next five years to sustain and grow ACCES programs in Kenya. That's enough to sponsor an additional 40 university students, or 150 primary school students, for the next 5 years! Asante sana tena sana (literally, “Thank you very much, again very much!”)
