Schools are back open in Makindu and the community has been educated on how to stay safe from Covid-19. We are in need of basic supplies for the school due to the extra precautions needed. Our goal to Empower Girls with Education is stronger than ever as Covid-19 has caused major barriers in providing the girls of Makindu with the necessities to attend school safely in the last year. Covid-19 has intensified the struggles in the community, especially with health safety in schools. However, due to the schools needing to take precautions, people unable to work and the community struggling financially, the school was unable to get any funding for soap, water, food or any intervention. While we are trying to get funding for necessities for the school to be a Covid-safe space. As soon as we are able to provide the schools with the basic needs, we are also hoping to keep everyone in good shape and well nourished by providing goats to each family. One goat is $65. Providing each family with a goat will contribute to guaranteeing that the girls will be in good health to continue their education which will enhance their lives tremendously. We are so happy and fortunate to have been able to contain the spread of Covid-19 for this long, but now we are hoping to provide schools with the supplies to operate safely so we can continue to empower the girls of Makindu. Thank you for your ongoing support.
