It Just Got Personal - Part 2


To many this is just another picture of a bunch of shacks.

To me, it’s the Mathare slums of Kenya, home to approximately 1 million Kenyans.
It's a place where I have walked the "streets" -- a mix of mud, trash, and poop.
It's where I saw countless kids wandering around... this being the only way of life they have known and may ever known.

To many this is just another picture of a bunch of shacks.
To me, poverty now has a location.

It just got personal.
