I notice that the “first of three” submission dates has passed. When are the next three and has your “Kenya money” been allocated yet?

Hi, Brian,
Thanks for stopping by my blog.
I am not the contact person for the organization I wrote about. I just posted it as an item that might be of interest to blog readers. You should go directly to the company website, or call the number given for “Cynthia.”
Sorry.
