Another day for Environmental Champions
Morning light catches plastic on the water before it catches your eye — a bottle spinning lazy in the brown current behind someone’s house. In Kibera, caring for the environment is not a poster on a wall; it is a decision to show up with a sack and a shovel when the smell is bad.
We welcome anyone who wants to walk that path with us. Our work with Victory Farms is not only about feeding children — it is also about ground that stays a little cleaner because neighbours refused to look away.
We do not promise perfect rivers. We do show up, again, with whoever is ready.
Ask at the ETCO office for the next cleanup date in your zone — we will find you gloves and a task that matches your back.
Ngong River Regeneration Network - Zone (1-6)
The Ngong River Regeneration Network Zone Coordinators (Zones 1–6) held a productive meeting with the Commissioners representing the Ngong River, chaired by Commissioner Benjamin Langwen, alongside Commissioners John Kioli and Dr. Loice Jepkemboi Kipkiror, together with Inspector Ashford - NRC Secretariat. The meeting was highly engaging and inspiring, leaving us even more energized and committed to advancing the river restoration agenda. Together, we reaffirmed our shared commitment to not only regenerating our rivers, but also promoting a cleaner environment, encouraging food production through downstream farming, and creating sustainable job opportunities through riverine activities. #NgongRiverRestoration #NairobiRivers #EnvironmentalConservation #RiverRegeneration #ClimateAction #CommunityEmpowerment #GreenJobs
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.
