November 2007, Bethany, CT - In March 2007, Nick Ohly traveled to Senegal with American Friends of Le Kinkeliba to visit various Le Kinkeliba sites. During this trip, Nick was deeply impressed by all of Le Kinkeliba's programs, and moved especially by the kindergartens. Nick died suddenly on November 12, 2007. Following his passing, his family decided that donations to a Le Kinkeliba kindergarten would be a fitting memorial. Contributions to The Nick Ohly Kindergarten in Senegal can be made c/o The American Friends of Le Kinkeliba -to contribute, click here.
