Sports: Final Whistles Tournament - Day 1
The Final Whistle tournament is designed as more than just a competition; it is a catalyst for transformation among young men in the community. By targeting male adults, the program emphasizes the role of sports in building resilience, encouraging sobriety, and creating role models for others. The event will provide an opportunity for youth to connect with mentors, learn life skills, and celebrate their achievements both on and off the field. As part of ETCO’s broader mission to empower the community, the tournament underscores the importance of partnership, participation, and positive action in shaping a healthier and more united future. We are grateful for the support shown by individuals and organizations through partnerships, donations, sponsorships and volunteering.
International Women's Day 2025
Today, ETCO, in collaboration with the Kibera Gender Advocacy Network (KGAN) partners, hosted a vibrant International Women's Day celebration at Canaan Estate Community Hall. The event brought together over 410 participants, highlighting the importance of gender equality, women's empowerment, and community solidarity. The day began with a powerful procession from AMREF in Laini Saba - Kibra to Canaan Estate, symbolizing unity and the ongoing fight for women's rights.
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.
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.
