My trip to Kenya '22 - Karunga

After visiting Nairobi on my recent trip to Kenya, we travelled to Karunga, where we were welcomed back by Mama Rose who hosted us for lunch with all of Grandma Jenny’s Training Centre staff, Teacher Mary from Karunga’s Emanuel Kindergarten and Zipporah with her children. It was such a wonderful feeling being back in the community that I adore so much. Each staff member and Zipporah received a small food hamper from Gennarosity Abroad which included staples of cooking oil, flour, tea, rice, salt, sugar and biscuits.

Updates on Zipporah

Zipporah is looking so well and healthy. She now works 6 days a week as a cook in a local school. This has been providing her with financial stability and enables her to pay for her children’s school fees. Gladys, her daughter, is now working at a daycare.

After our time with so many familiar faces of Karunga, we stopped by Karunga's Emanuel Kindergarten to visit the teachers and kids, and to see how the kindy has been going over the last few years.
