As Tumaini we took on the inciative to rehabiltate 50 street youth by equiping them with skills in Tailoring, Mechanics, Beauty and other technical skills to improve their livelihood.
The youths are from a neighbouring informal settlement kinown as Kiambiu in Nairobi,Kenya. We are hopeful that we will continue to impact the lives of these youths with your continuous and generous donations.
Lately, we been able to hold gathering with them and creating awareness on the dangers of drug abuse and misuse and on others diseases such as HIV and STIs just to mention a few.
To encourage the street youth to came to these programs . We had a food program that would entice most of them to come and call their friends as well.
This wouldn't be possible without our selfless donations and believing in our noble cause . With more funds will be able to enrol them in technical schools for 3-6 months course programs where they can learn technical skills that would be able to a source of livelihood and improve their quality of life and that of their families.
They would also live more meaningful lives. The rate of crime and theft in the country will also reduce.
