Research says..when learning is hands-on and active,the formation of neural connections is facilitated and information is much more readily remembered. As part of my work at @uwezakenya I try so much to blend in art and crafts together with life skills and mentorship sessions with the girls that I mentor. Last Sunday we did bead work (a hands-on activity)as they learnt how to make keyholders from beads.

"I dropped out of high school due to unavoidable circumstances. My passion for soccer led me to join the Uweza women’s soccer team and on the side, I am pursuing a course in hairdressing. I am happy because I am now able to make independent decisions with guidance from my elders. Despite being criticized by people that football will not take me anywhere, I am very much positive I will make something out of it. I aspire to play for international teams and that’s why I am working hard. I pray for a future where girls like me will be given opportunities in fields that are always criticized by society so that we can prove society wrong." – Julia, age 18, member of the Uweza women’s soccer team Photo by |Atieno Muyuyi ©2020| (at Kibera, Nairobi Area, Kenya) https://www.instagram.com/p/CGN_dXClfyE/?igshid=1tkw3lcog7gj4

Like a decade ago I started my monthly periods,I was excited and so was my mum.She had even saved some extra 100 bob somewhere waiting for the day she would get me my first sanitary towel.I was so happy but at the same time scared,you know this is something foreign. My mom bought me 2 packets of sanitary towels retailing at 50 Ksh shillings each,which I was to go for 2 months but unfortunately I had a heavy flow and used the two packets and did not inform my mum. Coming the second month the periods came very early in the morning.As usual I had to tell my mum, but she didn’t have the cash for a sanitary towel that morning ,so she advised I use a tissue and a piece of cloth, I mean I had to,because there was no other option! I could not ask my dad either because you know that was a taboo by then as much as I was close to my dad. So I used the tissue and a piece of cloth and carried an extra one for change,I left for school but I was feeling so uncomfortable.Then something happened! during break time as I was going for a short call. The tissue and the piece of cloth had fallen down and my inner pants stained, but I didn’t feel or know where they fell.I was so stressed about it, I went all round the school to look for them, I couldn’t stand the Shame Incase Someone saw them fall down.I looked every where I had stepped but I couldn’t find the piece of cloth with the tissue stained in blood.I was so stressed and had to fake sickness so that I could go home sleep and hide myself. I have never shared this story with anyone until today ! As we celebrate menstrual hygiene today I want to applaud individuals and organizations that are making sure girls in the slums are supplied with the sanitary towels as they maintain a proper hygiene because not so many families can afford to buy them especially during this pandemic.

The innocence with the kids just amazes me! Why didn’t t God just make us children forever 🤷🏿♀️. Having nothing to worry about or any responsibility at hand.All they know of is “we can’t go to school because of Corona and we have to put on masks every time we are out “ Amidst everything they are all jovial and living life as it present itself.

I owe her a lot! |•The pillar•| Rosemary Adongo |•60•| came to Kibera in 1982 June, a mother of 4 -(3 boys 1 girl)Rosemary is the strongest woman I have ever come across.Proud to call her mama. I am where I am because of her plus my effort of course. It’s sad that she had to say goodbye to Kibra few days ago! How I will really miss her! Sad and sweet that I now have to cross counties to go see her and vice versa!
