We received funds amounting to US$2,570 out of 3,030 total amount raised during the September Challenge.

Gift Bag Making: We purchased a roll of brown paper, 2 liters glue, and 10 rulers.
The funds you contributed in support of employability skills has enabled us to purchase materials, ingredients and the equipment above and has made us accomplish most of our goals of equipping deaf girls, women and the out of school vulnerable youth with employability skills through vocational training for self-employment and sustainability.
KCSD Technical Training Institute has created an opportunity for deaf girls, women, and youth to train on employability skills that enhance their lives to live independently, support themselves and their families.
However, with much happening now on the ground, it’s our sincere hope to accomplish KCSD mission and to impact more lives of those in dire need of help.
We’re still appealing to each of you to kindly talk to your friends and families to keep on supporting our work as we aim to create a better and a socio-economic sustainable future for our program beneficiaries. Any kind of donation either small or big will be highly appreciated. We also encourage you to spread the word and reach out to your friends and other volunteers who can their time, come and provide in-kind services, potential donors to contribute.
