Today’s guiding question in our Life Skills sessio Today’s guiding question in our Life Skills session with Grade 4–6 learners at Madoma Korando Educational Centre was: What is a vision board? 🎯✨

At first, we anticipated that the concept might feel complex for young learners. To make it relatable, we began with something familiar - the blackboard ✏️📚. When asked what it is and what it’s used for, the room responded with an enthusiastic “Yes!” the perfect bridge into our discussion.

In just 30 minutes ⏱️,what first felt like a “big elephant” of a topic a and  overwhelming was broken down into simple, engaging, and practical ideas the learners could easily understand and relate to 🤝💡. The energy in the room was high, with learners actively participating and already looking forward to the next session 😊🎉.

Small minds, big dreams  and a strong start to nurturing vision early. 🌱🌈

With Gratitude and Love, Thomas 🤍 As we bid farew With Gratitude and Love, Thomas 🤍

As we bid farewell to @tom_mctavish , our outgoing Program Coordinator, we do so with deep appreciation and full hearts. Thomas has been the definition of selfless service 🫶generous with his time, attentive in listening, empathetic in action, and unwavering in his commitment to solving problems with patience and grace.

He brought calm where there was uncertainty, hope where there were challenges, and kindness into every space he occupied. His genuine care for people, thoughtful leadership, and quiet strength have left an indelible mark on our work and on all of us who had the privilege of working alongside him.
As you take this next step, we wish you continued growth, fulfillment, and success in all that lies ahead. Know that this is not goodbye ☺️you will always remain part of the Better Me Kenya family. 💛🌱

Thank you for everything, Thomas. Your legacy here lives on. 🤝✨

Supporting Pathways to Household Economic Strength Supporting Pathways to Household Economic Strength 🌱

Today marked a powerful step toward financial resilience as we joined the Sapphire Community Group during their household wealth creation programme, an initiative supporting women running small businesses with practical, locally driven strategies for economic growth.

Through the merry-go-round approach, two goats were awarded to one household an example of how shared systems, collective responsibility, and gradual asset building can strengthen livelihoods and create lasting impact over time 🐐🤝.
