Our girls' football team participated in the that took place from the 8th-12th of December. The tournament consisted of teams from all over the country.

After drawing in 1 and winning 1 friendly matches, they had the pleasure of meeting Coach Martha Karimi, an ex harambee starlets player and instructor, who later made time and honoured us by visiting the centre.
Coach Martha was accompanied by Coach Mohamed from Academy, who trained the girls briefly and gave them an insight into the world of professional football career and the opportunities they can get if they venture into it.

Wishing our Kenyan people a Happy Jamhuri Day and happy holidays to all 🎊

We were privileged to host Msambweni Law Court and various stakeholders from different sectors at our Centre to commemorate Children Service Month that brought children from our Rescue Centres, Upendo Children's Home and Diani Children's village, together.

The children were informed about their legal rights and the different organisations that can offer assistance if any of their rights are violated.

Our children showcased their talents in drama, taekwondo, and Quran recitation.

We had the absolute pleasure of hosting the team from for a week where they interacted with our children, both at the Rescue Centres and at school, taking them through their wonderful programme on mental health, teaching them self regulation/management and enlightened them on their rights as children.

They also enjoyed a week's long of entertainment activities like talent show and different team building exercises.

We are truly grateful for their visit and stay at the centre as it has left a huge imprint in our children's lives.

Asante Sana 😊

We'd like to appreciate through .z for donating these great tools for our Culinary Arts class.

This support will enable our learners to learn different culinary skills, specifically baking that they have started with.

They will then move to cooking which will then get them opportunities in the hospitality industry.

Last Friday, we took the girls to the supermarket. Of course, we could not leave them out on the shopping treat.
It was as fun as visibly seen in the pictures 😍

It was an absolute honour once again to host for a mental health session with our children. They were divided into three groups, 4-7, 8-12, and 13 and above.

The children really enjoyed talking about healthy habits that contribute to positive mental well-being and learnt a lot from the team of psychologists on what to do whenever they're faced with stress or situations that affect their mental health.

We were pleased to host our 2023 graduation (hafla) at Alwalidayn Madrassa - مدرسة الوالدين الإسلامية. This was to celebrate the graduands who have completed the madrassa primary education (المتوسط), proceeding to higher classes in other institutions.
