This report explains the progress made from April to July. We received the results of the 11 students who did their grade 3 exams (under the electrical and electrical training course) in April. These exams were marked by the National Industrial Training Association (NITA). The candidates included 10 boys and One girl, all of them passed exemplary well the girl scored first class in her class. They have proceeded to grade two where they are continuing with their studies.
In June we entered into a collaboration with three schools in informal settlements, where we launched children's clubs that are aimed at spreading information and awareness on important issues such as hygiene, and the importance of drinking safe and clean water. Through these clubs, we discovered the challenges these children go through at home and school. We have collaborated in providing scholastic materials to those children in need. We have also donated materials to be used during art and crafts sessions.
One of our beneficiaries graduated from the technical university of Mombasa with a diploma in supply chain management and procurement. We continue to support girl child education through empowerment initiatives, which is why in May we introduced tailoring and dressmaking as both production and training. This will provide a platform for them to use their creativity and improve their new skills. For those teenage men and women who dropped out of school and have a passion for tailoring and fashion design, this initiative is for them.
We expect in the next months the training to have picked on very well, In August schools will be closing for a two weeks holiday so we will be welcoming back our students. Five students in the electrical and electronic class will be taking their grade two exams, we are also in the process of implementing a curriculum for solar installation training as a part of the electrical and electronic class.
