Village Notes
Though the leadership in Kiteigalwa community is going through tough times, the burial group has remained strong and united. This group has many small committees that are very strong and committed to what they do which has led them to victory. They still have a dream of acquiring tents which will be hired on different occasions.

Notes
Ida went to Kiteigalwa to meet with the community leaders and talk about the general meeting planned for Monday. Kibo had paused going to this village due to problems with the district officials. After solving the issues with the district, Kibo sent Ida to go and talk,encourage the community to resume working with Kibo, but the community had to prepare for the general meeting before the district officials and Kibo staff came. The community was very happy that Kibo resurrected and are willing to start over because they had lost hope and were doing their own things. Kibo had planned to meet the community on Monday but they preferred Friday when everybody is around. Friday Kibo is going to meet with the community and explain what happened in the presence of the district officials if they happen to attend.
