Helping Us See The World With A Different Eye

By Judith Opieba | Project Leader

The Virtues Project continues to inspire the practice of virtues at Mwiyenga Primary School and beyond:

  • Teachers and pupils show caring as they are happy to hold each other's hand in times of need.  This happened recently with our top graduate.  Teachers generously gave their time to support his transition to secondary school. 
  • Our Benevolent Kitty is doing great charity work.  It's helping us put smiles on the faces of the less fortunate students.  We are thankful to all those who have made the Benevolent Kitty grow through their contributions.  It has enabled us to attend soap training that will sustain our kitty once all teachers and pupils go through the training.
  • We have now made our third sale of poultry and we are about to restock.  From our next sale, we will practice charity, extending a helping hand to the needy, and giving a boost to our feeding program at the school.  
  • Parents of our students have not been left behind.  Having undergone virtues training too, they understand and practice the virtues of sharing and caring too. 
  • Mwiyenga Primary School Virtues Club has inspired empathy and caring at Kilimo Girls School Virtues Club. Their members now carry extra personal care products like soap, shoe polish, toilet paper, bathing soaps, toothpaste, and socks to give to the less fortunate at their school.  The idea was initiated by a former Mwiyenga Primary School student who has now become the class president of the Kilimo Girls Secondary School. 

The Virtues Project is spreading in Kakamega County through the efforts of Mwiyenga teachers and students to now include  Kilimo Girls Secondary School and Matungu in Mumias.  

Teach a child the skills of fishing and give room for him or her to look for food.  Virtues have now taught many how to be responsible and caring.  We are thankful that The Virtues Project has changed our character, helping us see the world with a different eye.   

I honor all of you reading this for your generosity, kindness, compassion, charity, consideration, and not forgetting the greatest of all, love.  You are truly making a difference in the lives of students, teachers, families, and our community!
