From kibera community center, you see as mile by everyone in their faces great work, they must be wondering what else could be in there parcel….hahaha!

Babies in their news jumpsuit immediately before they are washed, they never follow instruction that they need to be washed with the worm water for the first time, may be they will do so when they get to their home ….! It was really a great moment for the mum and the children, the kids look great in the jam suits hehe thanks to the family of baby Teresa and Emma too.

COMMENT FROM THE CENTER BOARD

Your generosity has not gone to waste but is used as a tool of transformation of livelihood of less fortunate women and their children, onbehalf of the team and the young mums I wish to say that new hope of life to the young women here is born, we have noticed this during the past 3 months and today when we received the gift from Emma Radin, thanks heaps from Tasmania Edmund rice network and Christian Brothers East Africa , may all of you keep waking gently with us as you transform the world each day, may the presence of the spirit of Edmund be felt across the globe   and be reflected upon by small and big communities  across Africa and beyond

Edmund rice once said “But We as a community must help it develop and flourish, otherwise we will have failed our future “we should all learn That the general work or engagement Of eddy rice is his message to the world and that is the work of cbs in Africa ….WE AFRICAN ARE HAPPY TO RECEIVE THE NEWS AND ACTION OF EDMUND RICE thanks heaps..

here are a few comments from the women.

Mbithe Ros : how do you feel about yourself?”am feeling great a least am able to have hope that someday my daughter will go to school and have education, am happy because am not idol and each morning I wake up coming here making me feel like any other person who is employed by big company again coming here has strengthened me a lot because we share our stories and we laugh all together making us to forget our main problem so group is helping us a lot.

Muhonja : am happy since I have a place to spend the day each day ; I would advice our members to keep up the spirit of togetherness since coming together by itself is great strength.

Atieno : I am happy we have made a step, am happy I would be able to get milk for my children out of here,a least I would be able to feed my family and continue giving them hope,atleast we should get breakfast here during work as one of our meal of the day since most of  us do come without  anything  in the morning, this may give us energy to work hard, it can motivate us more during working  hours. If we could get maize floor and sukuma wiki (cales) even once per week will help us a lot   for me my major problem is rent, food for my two boys of 10 ,12 years and their school tuition fee, I have not paid anything they are home  but I keep sending them back to school but am sure I will  find them home again since I have no  money to pay for them in schoo

Winey:” some are slow learners  but we have moved from initial stages to new level, I am happy this project makes me busy and am now able to make some beads by myself. If I continue like this am sure this will enable every one of us to be on its own, be able to feed himself and the children, I would like everyone to be serious and work hard to forge ahead with life to the next level

We the team are happy that the group is progressing positively and soon they will be the torch of their own family
