Happy for partnerships
Last Saturday, the pots were on early. Steam rose above plastic chairs as children filed in for githeri, greens, and whatever the kitchen could stretch — the ordinary miracle of a meal when the week has been thin.
Spoons scraped metal bowls; a little girl debated whether her neighbour got more beans — small arguments that only happen when bellies are actually full.
ETCO did not do it alone. The Uebert Angel Foundation and The GOOD News stood beside us, ladling and laughing, making sure seconds found the smallest plates first. In Kibera, partnership is not a slogan on a banner; it is someone choosing your queue before their own meeting.
We keep saying thank you because the need does not take a holiday. Each week more families knock; each week we try to answer without turning children away. That rhythm is only possible when friends refuse to drift.
If you have ever shared ugali from one pot with cousins you did not choose, you know what this feels like — crowded, imperfect, and somehow enough for the moment.
A volunteer wiped a child's chin with the edge of her leso; the child giggled, beans stuck to their teeth — the kind of beauty budgets never line-item.
Want to help keep Saturdays honest? Send support through channels we publish on our pages, or volunteer to serve. A bowl of food is a small thing until you are the child receiving it — then it is the whole afternoon.

Happy Father's Day
As a man. It's Okay to start all over again. Let someone love you correctly, genuinely, value you and respectfully if they have to. Somewhere in your 30s, 40s or 50s, you'll get the opportunity to rebuild your life after a negative loop. It's important you see that journey through. Keep going and don't ever give up. Strong.
