Week 8 - Damaris Mungai's Visit
Sharing is caring, we really appreciate our guests today for showing us love and compassion.
It was truly and honor to spend time with such great people and allowing our children to openly talk and discuss issues affecting them. It is true that children also have stress an depression, talking and discussing such matters create relief and for sure we'd want to have many more such moments.
Education empowerment, Legal aid and other life skills are so vital aspects of social life which must be imparted in children'ss lives.
Mrs. Damaris' children showed us a nice example by donating their best clothes and other items. We learnt a lot from them too.
Being more of an environmental experts' visit, we had to have a tour around because of the partnership we've established with EcoWB. Tony Machacha represented EcoWB so well.
All the way from Germany, Monika - Founder of Kibera Creative Arts (KiCA), visited us to discuss further how we can partner in future to connect children to more relevant opportunities in the entertainment industry.
We are truly grateful to all that made this program a success.
