Community Vaccination Day 1
People are still skeptical about being vaccinated based on the misinformation and disinformation spread on the effects of Covid 19. However, we still have those who believe that it is important to be vaccinated and they come for the vaccination.
Having a good number of vaccinated people would mean that there could be a possibility of reopening of various income generating activities like sports and events that would lead to the growth of economy and reducing poverty.

Early Lunch at ETCO
Diving deeper into the year with our children feeding program, yesterday's session at ETCO was filled with warmth, laughter, and nourishment. With the dedicated efforts of our team and the new interns, we ensured that over 350 children, along with elderly and youth members of the community, received a well-prepared meal. The presence of the interns brought fresh energy and enthusiasm, giving us hope for expanded children’s activities and engagement. As we continue to grow, we remain committed to ensuring that no child in our community goes hungry, and that every Saturday is a moment of joy and connection.
