Let’s talk about mental health, self care and mentorship! ❤️😍🥰
We had a great time training our Kenyan mentors. We talked about taking care of your own mental health so you can take care of others.
Happy 13th birthday Spur!! 🎂 🤪👯♂️💃
Spur is really a teenager. 🤪☺️
I can’t believe we have been running Spur for that long. We survived, well we are thriving! It was so so fun to celebrate a birthday with our Spur Kibera community - plus Andrew who has travelled to Kibera for training with us.
KISUMU 🐓😍🥰🧒🧒🕯❤️
My heart melts and feels for the people of Holo, Kisumu. To be a girl or woman 👩 living in a village is a strength but such a challenge.
“Wash yourselves; make yourselves clean;
remove the evil of your deeds from before my eyes;
cease to do evil,
learn to do good;
seek justice,
correct oppression;
bring justice to the fatherless,
“Praise [God] for his mighty deeds;
praise him according to the abundance of his greatness.
Praise him with blast of horn;
praise him with harp and lyre.
Praise him with tambourine and dancing;
Dance, play, football and a lots of fun! ☺️🕺⚽️
On Saturday we got to take all the sponsored children out of the slum and into the nearby park. It was definitely an experience as it was chaotic to get the children there.
On Friday, we had the last of four busy days of free clinics run by Spur Afrika at the K.A.G. school in Kibera, Kenya!
Spur Afrika provided assessment and free basic medications to 583 children and adults during the week, and free basic dental care to 126.
It’s clinic time. 🏥
I feel exhausted but it’s nothing in comparison to children who are unwell and never get any treatment. It is a privilege to access health care.
All too often, the world just isn’t fair.
Today was our first full day in the Kibera informal settlement (slum) of Nairobi, Kenya. The Spur Afrika staff - including Nico, Sylvia, Kijala and Maureen - were doing home visits for some of the children supported by the Spur Afrika program.
