...AND A BIT OF NEWS ABOUT WHAT WE'RE UP TO |
Mtaa Safi na Imani is a joint initiative run by three different organisations in Kayole and supported by the local sub-county administration. We operate through the week on different days on the same street to clean and green the streets. To kick-start the project, we started on the 1km stretch of the busy Masimba-Soweto Road. With a plan to clean up and plant trees every 6m along each side of the road. Along the way, we hope to create awareness amongst the residents, shopkeepers and road users and have them take affirmative action in keeping the street clean. It's a big vision, but we are taking one step at a time. NEW KAYOLE - ENVIRONMENTAL & DEVELOPMENT GROUP is a community based organisation from Matopeni that helps out every Monday. Imani Rehabilitation Agency care for more than 350 children that are abandoned, orphaned or otherwise neglected. The staff and kids set an example for Kayole to follow. The local sub-county has been helping too. Creating public awareness is possibly the biggest contributor to change in the community. Mtaa Safi na Imani holds regular meetings with the residents, shopkeepers other stakeholders to build awareness, educate people, bring together ideas and raise up a unified stand on the local environmental situation. There is a lot to do. Why not help us out in whichever way you can.
