Continued Learning During COVID-19 period

By Paul M | Activity Coordinator

The organization has continued to bridge the learning gap brought by the COVID-19 pandemic in Ruaraka Community by engaging the services of the volunteer teachers and mentors who walk door to door checking on students’ home learning arrangement. Kenyan government have encouraged home learning for students especially for the KCPE and KCSE candidates. This has left many parents resorting to organised tuitions for their children while they are juggling between providing the basic needs and learning resources.Our volunteers have continued to play key role in the community to ensure that assignments and learning resources are given to the students we are supporting in our program.

In Ruaraka, Elizabeth, is working around the clock to assist primary and secondary students amid COVID-19 crisis. Elizabeth is part of a team of dedicated volunteer teachers/mentors working tirelessly to teach and mentor young girls on how to keep safe from the sex predators in the community and to focus of completing education. This arrangement has benefitted 100 girls and we aim to reach 200 more by the end of quarter.
