ETCO (www.etco-kenya.org), Ecologists Without Boarders (EcoWB) and Power Engineers in partnership with the Nairobi Rivers Commission (NRC) and Water Resource Authority (WRA), extends an invitation to join us for the grand launch of the Nairobi Rivers Clean-up on September 23rd at Gatina - Kawangware from 9a.m
Exciting to have the feeding program
Every Saturday, ETCO carries out a feeding program for both children and the elderly in our community. The enthusiasm and excitement within our team are palpable as we prepare to bring nourishment and smiles to those who need it most.
Meeting with Nairobi Rivers Commissioners
ETCO's CEO and Langa'ta Member of Parliament, Phelix Odiwuor, also known as Jalang'o, paid a courtesy visit to the Nairobi River Commission.
Early Lunch and rainy weather
As always, we take joy in having lunch with the children. It seems like they consider ETCO their second home and relish spending most of their day at our offices, whether or not there are specific activities planned for them.
The Joy of Life
Yet another opportunity to find joy in life at ETCO. In this context, "life" refers to the act of sharing and deriving pleasure from what we possess, regardless of its size or scale.
Nairobi Dam Restoration Talks
ETCO, Power Engineers, and Ecologists Without Borders (EcoWB) engaged in a fruitful dialogue regarding the first phase of the Nairobi Dam Conservation Project. Our environmental department is diligently striving to ensure the well-being of our community members by maintaining a healthy environment. This effort comes just a week prior to the UN Climate Change Summit in Nairobi. "Climate action is not a Global North issue or a Global South issue. It is our collective challenge, and it affects all of us. We need to come together to find common, global solutions." ~ H.E President William Samoei Ruto
Weekend Blessings for Children at ETCO
Just prior to children return to school next week Monday, today provided another wonderful opportunity to be with them, enjoy a meal, and witness joyful expressions, patience, and playfulness while waiting for food.
Let's create a brighter future through kids
The second weekend after schools have shut down, we find joy in spending ample time with these kids, engaging in learning, enjoyable games, and sharing meals.
Keeping them engaged during holidays
With schools being closed, our focus shifts to keeping kids engaged through a variety of activities such as sports, acting, music, dance, drawing, and social skills. During these holidays, we see more children participating in our feeding program, and today's session highlighted this trend. Your support in keeping this program alive is greatly appreciated, and we encourage those willing and able to contribute positively to these children's lives to join us.
1st ETCO Trip for Kids - Nairobi National Museum
Exposure plays a crucial role in human development, offering them practical knowledge through their senses like sight, smell, touch, hearing, and taste. ETCO is organized a trip to Nairobi National Museum today, for 30 children below 9 < 16 years of age. Food and transportation was provided.
Cold day and sweet warm lunch
No matter how chilly the weather was today, we made certain that our kitchen/office/store was sufficiently heated to prepare a meal for the kids. We take great delight in sharing lunch with the children in our community, as it brings us joy to witness them eating heartily and enjoying their social interactions, alongside other programs provided by ETCO before the meal.
Children Feeding Program continues
During this period of recuperation from the nationwide protests over the rising living expenses, it remains crucial to ensure that people, especially children, have access to food. That's why at ETCO, we have taken on the responsibility of organizing a children's feeding program every Saturday.
Rays of hope & tough economic times
After a tumultuous week for both children and parents, ETCO holds a children/elderly feeding program every Saturday to address the challenges they are facing. The ongoing weekday protests have significantly impacted parents' ability to provide sufficient support for their families, especially in these tough economic times.
