Despite enjoying their precious school holiday time, Skillz Kenya HIV participants were kept busy and fully engaged into the program in their respective communities. Skillz coaches divided themselves into different groups reaching out to participants from every corner and community with HIV awareness messages. Throughout the school holiday season over 350 youth were awarded with certificates as a confirmation of becoming fully certified HIV ambassadors in their communities. The graduates are poised to conduct both formal and informal HIV sessions with their peers, families and members of the community."Now i have information about HIV/AIDS and i can confidently teach my friends too."Said 15 years old Banula.
