Schools have closed now and the number of children at home has increased hence creating even more need for children to be more empowered and kept engaged with many more activities.
This Saturday, we had 257 children who played different games depending on their age groups. we had our facilitators talk to them and trainers train them on the various activities such as dancing, singing, acting modeling and acrobats.
Eating during lunch time is also part of the activities done on Saturdays to keep them stronger and energetic.

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.
