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.

FLOOD SUPPORT APPEAL – KIBERA
Heavy rains brought flooding to Kibera’s riparian areas—destroying homes, claiming lives, and leaving families in urgent need. ETCO appeals to well-wishers for food, clothing, bedding, medical support, and other basics, while urging everyone to stay safe around fast water and contamination risks.
