Early Lunch at ETCO
Diving deeper into the year with our children feeding program, yesterday's session at ETCO was filled with warmth, laughter, and nourishment. With the dedicated efforts of our team and the new interns, we ensured that over 350 children, along with elderly and youth members of the community, received a well-prepared meal. The presence of the interns brought fresh energy and enthusiasm, giving us hope for expanded children’s activities and engagement. As we continue to grow, we remain committed to ensuring that no child in our community goes hungry, and that every Saturday is a moment of joy and connection.
Sports: Final Whistles Tournament - Day 1
Yesterday, ETCO and partners proudly hosted the Final Whistle tournament under the theme Sports for Sobriety, under the Sports Department headed by Andrew Ayuma AKA: Mnyakuzi. This event, scheduled from January 19th to February 23rd, 2025, is ongoing and aims to promote healthy lifestyles and positive choices among male youth through the power of sports. The tournament will bring together 14 teams to compete every Sunday at the Undugu Ground, creating an engaging and supportive environment for participants to channel their energy and talents constructively. By using football as a platform, ETCO seeks to address societal challenges such as substance abuse while fostering teamwork, discipline, and community engagement.
2nd children feeding program for 2025
We successfully conducted our second children’s feeding program of the year. It held great significance as it marked the first feeding initiative after schools reopened following a long two-month holiday break. During this period, many children in our community faced increased challenges in accessing regular, nutritious meals due to the lack of school-provided meals. The program served as a vital lifeline, ensuring that at least 350 children, 100 elderly individuals, and 50 youths received wholesome food to start the new academic year on a positive note.
