The Art of Giving (The Ficha Uchi way...).

Giving...

It's yet another beautiful month and there's nothing more I'd like to appreciate this coming month like the Ficha Uchi Campaign. There's just something about, someone, or people in general who understand and relate to the less fortunate and I believe if this is not the Kenyan style of saying we care, I don''t know which is.

To whom much is given, much more is expected. Growing up, I had to rely on hand-me-downs and well-wishers for at least clothing and food.  The fact that someone out there, one Billian Okoth, decided to take this up as a personal calling and clothe Kenyan children is something to reckon. Restoring dignity is a strong mantra to go by and delightful ladies and gentlemen, Ficha Uchi hasn’t disappointed.

After reading Bill Clinton’s book; Giving and being a beneficiary of such I am believer of giving; for it's an art crafted for the most loving of hearts. While the Kenyan child struggles with an overwhelmingly complicated system and their parents burdened by inflation it is particularly thoughtful for someone to step in and give a helping hand. Partnering with several government and celebrity figures, Ficha Uchi is now one of the most relevant campaigns in Kenya; leading the path in service as well as deeds.

On 23^rd July, at Ndururuno primary school, Nairobi, I personally got to a second straight-up indulgence in their humbling activity. It was a great experience that Ficha Uchi is not just a sensation but a reality check, a family and a loving home for all of those kids who have had their dignity restored. One girl walked up to me in a totally tattered patched up uniform and mumbled her gratefulness. That moved me to tears because, I can relate to the pain and shame of having half your butt out in class and being jeered at for not affording much.

May God bless this people and I urge you all to help these kids get their dreams right. If we can all give them the confidence to head to school and learn I’m sure they won’t disappoint. You can be part of this revolution, you can be the reason why a child out there has a reason to smile again. You can restore dignity by either joining the volunteer train, donating to the course, or even become  sponsor! The Paybill number is 932235; the account number 1234. Remember, no one ever gets poor by giving as it always opens up the doors to receiving, for the heart that gives, gathers.

The world needs angels, to clothe us in confidence and love. This is for the Kenyan child, by Kenyan people. Let’s all join hands, let's clothe these children, give them the confidence and restore their dignity. Hats off Ficha Uchi.
