Ngong Rivers Regeneration Network - Zone 2
Kiandaa village in Sarang’ombe Ward woke to the sound of shovels and greetings — the Foundation of Hope alongside Ngong Rivers Zone 2, ETCO among them, turning a cleanup into a neighbourhood reunion with purpose.
Seventy-two participants worked two hundred metres of river — not a marathon distance, but long enough for backs to ache and for gossip to turn into teamwork. By the time the weighing scales spoke, the numbers told a blunt story: 2.1 tonnes of wet waste and 0.3 tonnes of dry waste removed from a stretch many people had stopped seeing because looking hurt.
Leaders from groups across Zone 2 stood shoulder to shoulder with residents — proof that this network is not one logo but many hands. The hashtag stays the same for a reason: #LetTheRiversFlow is a demand, not a decoration.
Join the next Zone 2 action; bring gumboots and curiosity. If you cannot come, fund a sack or a meal for volunteers — we count every contribution in kilos and kindness.
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.
