“I had a really great time with Better Me during “I had a really great time with Better Me during these amazing weeks. 🥰 At the Korando educational center, I assisted in English lessons, religion class and maths lessons. We also did art and crafts. It was a great experience to teach the children and to interact with the teachers. After class, we played a lot with the kids (volleyball, drawing, songs and tomato, a french game). They were so cute and always smiling. :) We really enjoyed our time with them.
We also went to the remand home and mobile library, it was so interesting to talk with the kids.

At Better Me and in the school, everybody is so kind and so welcoming! It was really a second home for me. We did many things together like going to the dunga hill camp, safari, see the sunset over the hill, karaoke nights, games and so many things...
I am so grateful for all that I received in Kisumu 💖

So for everything, I want to thank you !! Asante and see you soon :) (in french we say, à bientôt !) 🤍 🤍 🤍”
- Mathilde from France 🇫🇷 

Thank you for your kind words Mathilde! 🥰💛 It was a pleasure having you (and your friends!) with us. See you soon :)

Every 5 years, Kenya 🇰🇪 holds its general el Every 5 years, Kenya 🇰🇪 holds its general election to choose new leaders. Since some schools are used as polling stations, the children were granted a break from school until Thursday this week.

Our volunteers took advantage of this opportunity to organize a picnic for all the kids who were unable to go home ❤️

“Everybody can be great. Because anybody can ser “Everybody can be great. Because anybody can serve. You don’t have to have a college degree to serve. You don’t have to make your subject and your verb agree to serve…. You don’t have to know the second theory of thermodynamics in physics to serve. You only need a heart full of grace. A soul generated by love.”
