It has been a busy and meaningful week for our team as we carried out school engagement visits in Narok County. Our visits took us to Iletukunyi, Ndonyio, Osero Lempere, Oldonyio Orasha, and Esupetai schools, where we engaged with both boys and girls, especially those in upper primary school. These schools have a total of 1,680 learners, including 714 girls, all Maasai children.
Every visit reminds us why this work matters. There is something deeply inspiring about sitting with young learners, listening to their experiences, and seeing the eagerness in their faces, ready to learn, share, grow, and dream about a better future.
