Through wellwishers, friends, donors and colleagues have helped SACRENA for now to be here now. We said we shall make sure the children are in school...Yes it is happening now. After the Kenyan post election madness, children like the beneficiaries supported by you were really affected-- there was no shop to buy books, pens, uniforms, food, medicines and security was worsening. BUT now, Happiness...children enjoying the fruits of your support. If you see them now I tell you tears of joy will come out. They want you people to come and visit us.
Through you have given SACRENA a name. We now have expertise, new innovative ways, and have joined the movement around the world. Through Sports for Social Change Network championed by the Nike, Care, USAID, GlobalGiving and other implementing sports grasroots projects have earned SACRENA a name. Now we have a voice to share lessons and the best practices how through your support we are using sports in development and in programs to address the plights of orphans, people with HIV/Aids, youths, and the teenage widows and the entire community. By joining the SSCN-We are coming together with excellent Kenyan sports bodies to share, learn and scale up our organizationl capacity. Monitoring and Evalution is also good in the process. Just last week, the Care, Mercy Corps and Nike approached as to attend the 3 day Moving Forward Project targeting sports ambassodors and grassroots projest like SACRENA.
