Ukarimu Project Putting a smile on children's faces in Africa.

At Ukarimu Project there is nothing more touching than putting a smile on children's faces when and where we can always. Recently the project visited Kenya and distributed clothes, backpacks, sports shoes which were donated by children from Dielsdorf and also friends of  Ukarimu Project from different areas within Switzerland. Many thanks for your Generosity. Making one child smile at a time helps us build a better world..

Apart from distribution of the sanitary towels the students also benefited from reproductive health education and mentorship from award winning designer Winnie Ojanga and Miss Tourism Homabay county (Currently Miss Tourism Kenya2016 Wendy Bello Omollo from Homa Bay county ) motivated the girls to keep on pushing towards achieving their goals and dreams and choosing the right priorities in their lives. The Ukarimu mentoring program aims to  teach the girls/Boys to take care of them selves in order to reduce cases of HIV/AIDs through sex education. The girls who have gone through our program are Empowered!
