October Highlights

The month is about to end and we had some great things happening at our center this month. Special Education Professionals came to Maai Mahiu on the 9th loaded in two big SUV's for disabled kids assessment. Not only did we have kids come for assessment but the adults came too to see if SEP could fix some things for them. Some needed Walking sticks while others were looking for special shoes. SEP continues to partner with us and recommends a physical therapist for the malaika kids as a matter of priority. CTC is now known to care for the disabled community in the town and some came as far as Nairobi for the assessment.

Lisa Mizell made the malaika kids day on October 13 when she showed up with back packs, hats with CTC logo and a peace sign in the middle and lots of Halloween goodies. Kool aid was so cool for George and he kept coming for more. Very new experience for all! powder that makes the water sweet and fruity. Ooh we need some more!!. Thanks Lisa for your love for CTC and malaika kids.

Last Saturday the 24th we held our second monthly Ubuntu day. We had a great number of new volunteers and the county council boss was with us too to keep the city clean. The Ubuntu days are picking up and next month, we will hold it on the 21st of November by public demand so that they could make it to partner with us. Thanks to Nuru group from the IDP(Internally displaced People) for coming to support us in this great cause and the Maai Mahiu County Council for recognizing CTC's efforts within this community.

Let us stay connected.
