Visitors, Volunteers & Donators
The Salvation Army’s Internal Auditor, Major Bilha Rewa and Captain Musa Baraza joined us in October.
Major John Walters also visited the home in October and encouraged the children to focus on education and to live in holy lives.
Sarah and Winnie from the ‘Doing Good’ organisation came in December to volunteer in December. Sarah is from Italy and Winnie is from the Netherlands.
Mr. Cliff visited the home severally whilst in Kenya and brought the children second-hand shoes from his company.
Facilities & Resources
Through the support and efforts from our heatquarters, the following has been achieved:
The girls exit ladder has been replaced;
The water tank stand has been repaired and repainted;
The doors and window panes have been repaired;
New utensils have been purchased;
Staff uniforms have been purchased; and
Clothes, shoes and sandals have been purchased as Christmas presents for the children.
We are currently drafting a project proposal which seeks to renovate the structure of the home by making changes to the pavement, parking area and Captain offices.
Education Update!
Some children sat for their K.C.P.E Exams and for the majority of the children, their performance was absolutely remarkable and we are very proud of them. As these children have finished this big hurdle in their education, they will now be reunited
with their families.
Volunteers kindly came to the home in the December holidays and gave the children indoor tuition.
Captain Kenneth & Beatrice Muriithi have met with all the children’s teachers to discuss their progress and how to help them improve.
Some children at the nursery school level, finished nursery and attended a beautiful graduation ceremony. The ceremony program included worship, entertainment, award of certificates and cutting a cake.
