West Coast Connection! A huge thank you to our California buddies Cat & Wolfie, who schlepped 3.5 hours up the coast in search of the perfect oyster shells. They hit the jackpot at an undisclosed location near San Luis Obispo. We look forward to transforming these elongated lovelies (some as big as size-12 flip-flops!) into glorious shell art for our Afrikids fundraisers. Cat & Wolfie are not only boffo beach scavengers, but also long-time supporters of AfriKids. We are so grateful for all they do for us & especially for the kids. Can’t wait to pick up our giant box of flip-flops when we visit California in May πŸ©΄πŸ‘©πŸ»β€πŸŽ¨πŸŽ¨πŸ–ŒπŸšπŸͺΈπŸ πŸ¦‘πŸ’πŸ¦ͺπŸ™πŸŒ΄β˜€οΈ
