Let's create a brighter future through kids
Two weekends into the school holiday, our yard filled early — chalk dust on hands, a ball bouncing off a wall, someone humming a song they learned in church.
We ran simple lessons, played games that tired them out in the best way, then gathered for a meal while the sun slid toward the corrugated roofs. A child who is fed and heard stands a little taller; we see it in how they ask questions.
We keep saying it because it is true: skills change trajectories. We need mentors who can teach budgeting, public speaking, basic first aid, how to read a contract — the small literacies that turn a clever child into a prepared young adult.
Walk in if you can teach
If you have a Saturday morning and a skill to share, do not overthink the CV. Reach out through etco-kenya.org; we will match you with a session that fits the age group and the room we have that week.
World Menstrual Hygiene Day Celebration
In celebration of Menstrual Hygiene Day, ETCO, in partnership with Rotary Club of Nairobi Connect and with support from the Safaricom Foundation, today donated 900 sanitary towels to girls at Joash Olum Primary School. This initiative was aimed at supporting the girl child by promoting menstrual dignity, boosting confidence, and helping keep girls in school so they can stay focused on their education and future careers.

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. 😊😊
