Welcoming Linda Gitau (Keke) to ETCO & Feeding Program.
The initiative benefited over 300 people, from children to the elderly, providing both food and support. The partnership between ETCO and UAF, especially with the SE Nairobi branch, was crucial to the program's success, demonstrating the power of collective efforts in meeting community needs.
ETCO deeply appreciates this fruitful collaboration and looks forward to future joint efforts to positively impact society. The success of this feeding program highlights the importance of partnerships and the potential for continued influence when organizations unite for a common cause. Reflecting on this achievement, ETCO and its partners are inspired to seek new opportunities for community outreach and to strengthen their commitment to helping those in need.
Today, the Nairobi Rivers Commission, under the leadership of Chairperson Dr. Pamela Olet, along with Commissioners Dr. Duncan Ojwang and Grace Messoppir, embarked on an extensive tour of Nairobi Dam and its key tributaries to address the escalating waste pollution crisis. Joined by the Shanghai Municipal Engineering Design Institute (SMEDI), CEO of ETCO - Collince Onyango, community leaders, and representatives from the Ngong River Regeneration Network, the team assessed the severe impact of waste along critical points, including Area 51 - Sarang'ombe Bridge, Soweto West Bridge, Kibera South Hospital Bridge, and Nairobi Dam itself.
ETCO's continued children feeding program remains a beacon of hope for the community, providing nutritious meals to those in need every Saturday. Today, we served Githeri, a traditional Kenyan dish made from a delightful combination of maize and beans. This nutritious meal is not only enjoyed by the children but also by the youth and elderly who participate in our program. The smiles on their faces as they savor the food remind us of the impact we are making in their lives.
Another learning experience to engage with the community in Mathare and the River Line communities. Event filled with events and transfer of knowledge and information.
