A DAY WITH "DADDY" MULLI . and a plan to collaborate on digital learning for his 900 children in Ndalani.
13. July 2023 | Ndalani, Kenya
Elia my son, Victor and myself had an amazing expirience to see the work of a humble men, honorable Professor and caretaker of thousands of homeless and fatherless Kenyan children. When we first met Dr. Charles Mulli in his office - we were still outside, under a tree, where he set camp ever since 2019, after the COVID quaranteen recommendations were first announced. His garden office under a simple canvas roof has given him a vantage point to be close to the family members. This beautiful  place of quiet reflection is intertwined with busy organisation, phonecalls and listening, a place where Daddy can hear and see his children laugh, play and learn all over  the large compound which is the home of over 900 rescued children. Angela his right hand assistant, herself adopted by MCF, showed us this place of learning inspired by the truth of the bible and God's presence in their lifes. The Mulli Childrens Family (MCF) understands that every child has a talent to grows. Today they are one of the 6 largest agricultural producer in Kenya for their own consumption and for trading, they bake their own bread and build their own houses and a grand sportshall.  
Over 600 children go to school at MCF and Daddy thinks its time the get them exposed to digital learning the way that wiLearn has presented the case. Our wiLearn team would be so excited to become part of this amazing journey that the Mullli family has chosen and awaiting the go ahead from D. C. Mulli for the first delivery of our offline moLLi kit. More to come on this story....


"AGAINST ALL ODDS"

KUWINDA YOUTH . KA SOBA

SELF-MADE LIBRARY UNITES YOUTH


Kris Kiarie and his team Ka Soba (stay sober) have a story of true transformation to tell. Once criminal, addicted and a burden to society he experienced God's healing of mind, body and soul during a rehab time away from the streets of Nairobi. Returning to his hometown Kuwinda after his rehabilitation he has been on a mission ever since - giving youngster in the slum a direction in life, being their to support youth and foster them to develop their talents for the good of society. The Kuwinda community library was Kris's answer to keep children out of harms way and prevent addiction to glue or alcohol. He founded the "Ka Soba" community group of youth and parents to build a place where youth can be, meet, learn, play and receive a listening ear.  Sam Mbogo, our librarian friend from the Marist University supported Kris to get started with the wiLearn wiFi library to  improve literacy and learning skills among the Kuwinda youth.   
This community has thrived on the donated iPads and the wiFi library ever since. The equipment is used daily in a well organised environment. We are proud to be part of this project.
Sam Mbogo is about to launch another 5 school communities in Kajiado district and we are looking forward to funding support for these life changing projects.

RELOCATION . DANDORA

STREET CHILDREN NEED A HOME

St.Benedict Community Center (SBCC) has adopted Smart Learning in March 2020.  Since then numerous homeless streetchildren have passed through the center, receiving love and care, a warm meal and digitally supported primary education. Rune and Mary are two examples who have moved on and are a shining example among their peers in secondary school.
The situation with the school venue has become precarious in October last year, when the landlord announced plans to sell the plot and evict SBCC from the premises. With the help of Swiss sponsors wiLearn facilitated to buy a 100 m2 plot of land around Dandora to care for the homeless children. We are still short of 3500 CHF to make final payment for the plot.
Land title transfer is almost complete, so our wiLearn team visited the new plot togehter with an architect. We discussed the plans of SBCC to develop the plot asap to continue the caretaking for the over 160 school-age children. SBCC seeks urgent support to plan, temporary relocation and construction of the new center. An estimated 90'000 USD is needed to commence the first two floors of a mulitstory care center with the potential to add 3 more floors as funds are available.
