Happy New Year 2025 to you all
Fireworks lit someone else’s sky on TV, but in Kibera the new year arrived with church drums, a few loud speakers, and the quiet decision to try again. At ETCO, January smells of paraffin and fresh exercise books — the same mix as hope and worry.
Our children’s feeding program has become the heartbeat many people know us by: Saturdays when pots clang, children line up, and someone gets a meal who might have skipped breakfast. It is not only food — it is a place where a child is called by name and an elder is offered a chair.
2025 will ask hard questions — rent, health, school fees in KSh that never shrink. We enter the year with our hands open: for partners who can give, for volunteers who can peel potatoes, for anyone who believes a child should not start the week hungry.
Resolve one practical thing this month — a bag of maize, a Saturday morning — and walk it through our gate.
🌍 World Earth Day Highlights
We had an incredible time commemorating World Earth Day alongside amazing partners and community champions. It was a pleasure connecting with the Peace Pulse 254 team—Mr. Patrick, Madam Grace, and Mr. Immanuel—as well as the Nairobi Rivers Commission (NRC), led by Community Lead Commissioner Madam Eva Muhia.
Invitation - World Earth Day
As we celebrate World Earth Day – 6th Edition under the theme “Our Power, Our Planet.” 🌍 We warmly invite community members, partners, and stakeholders to be part of this impactful day focused on community resilience, sustainable energy solutions, waste reduction, and improved public health infrastructure.
