Cold day and sweet warm lunch
Nairobi turned grey and thin; breath showed in the kitchen doorway. We fired the jiko, kept the office warm enough to chop onions without shivering, and stirred pots until the steam fogged the window facing the lane.
Children arrived with jerseys tied at the waist and stories about cold classrooms. We served lunch while programmes ran first — a little learning, a little play — then bowls, spoons, the soft scrape of githeri finished to the last grain.
We love this part: the noise level rising, someone teasing someone else about taking two pieces of meat, a grandmother asking for a little more soup for a shy grandchild.
Bring a skill, not just a cheque
Institutions that can send instructors — art, music, carpentry, coding basics — help children pick up tools we never had at their age. If your company runs volunteer days, propose ETCO; we will schedule around the meal and the weather.
Kikuyu Rotary Club Team site visit - partnership
It was a pleasure hosting the Nairobi Rotary Club Connect’s Yumbya Nyamai, who also represented Ecologists Without Borders (EcoWB), alongside the Kikuyu Rotary Club Presidents—past, current, and incoming—George Ngotho, Patrick, and Marion respectively. We truly appreciated your visit to the site and your interest in the upcoming waste management project.
Efforts: Inputs - Waste Management Project Strategy
Soon, just very soon. It will all make sense. Efforts, sleepless nights.... Stress, strategies, failures and minor successes... One day, I'll look back and say, Yes, I created a *System* Generation System... Me and the people I serve will be grateful... I'll be happy to have served my purpose in this world. 😊😊
🌍 World Earth Day Highlights
We had an incredible time commemorating World Earth Day alongside amazing partners and community champions. It was a pleasure connecting with the Peace Pulse 254 team—Mr. Patrick, Madam Grace, and Mr. Immanuel—as well as the Nairobi Rivers Commission (NRC), led by Community Lead Commissioner Madam Eva Muhia.
