Boy’s dorm security enhanced


The wall was constructed to enhance security.
 The security around the boy’s dorm has been enhanced thanks to the FUMC and ITHMINISTRIES. The wall will ensure that intruders cannot access the boys dorm. The government issued a directive that all grills on windows in the dorms should be removed thus the urgency of having the wall.
 HOREC is thankful for the speed with which ITHMINISTRIES and FUMC replied to the request.

 HOREC children mesmerized the participants with their lyrical prowess that left them asking for more songs. Other groups that performed included Kijani and students from NIBS.

HOREC children benefitted from an Ecology trip funded by the African Fund for Endangered Wildlife. The trip saw the children visit David Sheldrick and Rhino Orphanage where abandoned calves were managed; the Nairobi Mamba and Ostrich Farm where the children learnt about crocodiles and ostriches and finally at the Nairobi Animal Orphanage where they learnt about the lions, cheetahs, monkeys and a host of other animals in the orphanage.

AFEW also provided a sumptuous lunch for the children and their minders. HOREC extended the invitation from AFEW by including other children from the neighboring charitable institutions and primary schools. Children from C4KK, HORIZON children homes, Komaranch and Komahill primary school participated in the trip. 




The Founder of HOREC, Christine Wambui, was full of praise to the AFEW: “The trip meant so much to the children under our care and it’s our hope that AFEW will continue with such programs that enlighten our children on the importance of environmental and wildlife conservation”.
Special thanks go to Mr. Mbugua, Mary, Shirley and all those who made the trip possible.
