CARE AND SUPPORT

The organization has many bright disadvantaged children to be assisted,many walk to school barefoot, tattered uniform,lack books, sleep without blankets, mattress,lack basic needs and school fees,these reduce their self esteem that contribute to poor performance in school.Following our ground level survey we have discovered many of the disadvantaged children and families stay several days without eating anything some die because of hunger or steal from their neighborhood food,by establishing a greenhouse, introduce kitchen gardens and provide farm inputs will enable them to have food hence eradicate poverty.

HIV/AIDS

In Kenya most of vulnerable people to be infected are the matatu drivers/touts, barmaids, commercial sex workers,long distance track drivers, motorbike riders and illicit brewers.Due to poverty many of girls and women are forced into sex business, working in bars, brewing local beers and most of their clients are from transport industry and this makes the two parties at risk of contracting HIV/AIDS infection.HIV/AIDS awareness both work place and transport industry will provide behavior change in our community.
