Volunteers bring colour to our world

Every tuesday afternoon young volunteers from across Nairobi come together to spend time with the chidren in our School Transition Programme. The volunteers teach the children songs and discuss different topics using stories and drama. Then they lead the children in craft activities.

Together they have made model houses, toy boats, mini spiders and minions! The children really look forward to this time each week. We're really excited that the children are being exposed to different forms of creativity and having a chance to expermint with arts and crafts. It is also great for the children to have these role models to look up to. People who encourage them to work hard to return to school, people who model giving back to the community.

We're really grateful to our partners, Colour My World Kenya who organise the volunteers every week and give so selflessly and with great passion to serve the children they work with.
