Today, I know there is plenty of entertainment to go around on TVs, DVDs, Blue Rays and streaming devices, but I am sure there is a service that is lacking in most rural towns that can make a difference in the lives of some rural kids. Something that can let them know they matter. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The Factual Films did exactly that for OlKalou youth back in the 1970s. The movies entertained them, stoked their curiosity and enlarged their world view, while letting them know they mattered. It was a once in a while kind of thing, but it was front and center in the boys minds. They knew a movie was coming in a few months, giving them something to look forward to, and something to talk about for a long time after they watched it. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

They knew somebody in Nairobi cared enough to put them on a scheduled visit just to entertain them without charging them a dime. They were not forgotten just because of their location. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Today, t<\/span><\/span>here are some services that are concentrated in the city and other big towns that rural kids have only heard about or seen on TV. If one able person or persons, conducts a feasibility study and identify such a need, invest some money and time into it and bring it to the rural towns, you will be the heroes of this generation, just like Factual Films was the entertainment hero of my generation.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
