Effects of Covid still Felt

By James Oyugi | Founder

Happy New Year Friends,

The covid-19 pandemic brought unprecedented challenges to the slums of Nyalenda in Kisumu.Kenya.Many families experieced the loss of loved ones,jobs and livelihoods, which led to deep emotional and economic distress. The pandemic left a lasting impact particularly on vulnerable households that struggled to cope with the harxh realities of life in its aftermath.

The James Were Foundation has remained steadfast in its commitment to supporting affectec families.The foundation continues to care for 10 families who bore the brunt of the pandemic's effects. Our key interventions include:-

1. Counselling services: this helps families come to terms with grief and trauma caused by the loss  of loved ones, we provide regular counselling lessons. This initiative aims to foster emotional healing and resilience.

2.Feeding program: Recognizing the food insecurity exacerbated by job losses, we have implemented a feeding program for 10 families .This ensures they receive nutritious meals and reduces burden of daily sustenance.

3. Economic and Emotional Rehabilitation:for families that lost employement opportunities, the Foundation offers guidance and empowerment to help them navigate these challenges. Wd support them in rebuilding their lives and finding alternative ways to sustain their households.

we are deeply grateful to our supporters,particularly through GlobalGiving ,for making this vital work possible. Your generosity and unwavering committment have allowed us to provide hope and relief to families during these trying times.

As we step into anew year, we extend our hearfelt gratitude and best wishes to all our supporters. May 2025 bring you joy,health and prosperity. Together, we can continue making a difference
