Dear friends and supporters of Maji Mazuri,
At Maji Mazuri, we remain very motivated by the growth that we have seen in each of the programs for the first half of this year. We are grateful for the tremendous support we've been receiving from our dynamic community.
2011 started on a low note to us as a country, when signs of looming drought were projected in most sections of the nation. On 29th May 2011, the Kenyan President declared the current drought a national disaster. Over time, this has contributed to the high cost of commodities, making our operations a little more difficult.
We however reached out to you through emails and the Maji Mazuri website and we are very grateful for your response.
One of our strategic plans for this year is to further improve the quality of the service that we give to everyone at Maji Mazuri. This facilitated the planning of seminars, workshops, evaluations and trainings to equip us better and make this goal possible.
Tremendous progress has been made and again by bringing more people on board, with more skills to take our us to the next level. Thanks to the skills our new team members have brought, we are finding new ways to empower the people we serve. The students are better equipped and we have also seen a rising trend where local organizations are reaching out to assist.
We continue to receive guests and volunteers from all over the world. As a global family working together towards a common goal, we welcome this gesture of love and support with open arms and look forward to more collaborations.
We've updated the website with what's going on in the various programs here at Maji Mazuri.
As you read these reports, remember that you made this possible. Without your support, Maji Mazuri would not have been able to make these steps towards touching lives and empowering communities.
Thank you and May God bless you.
Wanjiku Kironyo,
Maji Mazuri Program Director
