In July, 18 members of the Barrett, Burton, Roth, Sharp, Warnement, and Wachtman families will travel to Kenya for a partnership exchange with Sikhona Rescue Centre (https://www.sikhonarescuecentre.com/), which supports women and children impacted by gender-based violence (GBV). In addition to serving at their shelter and sustainable farm where care is provided, the group will undertake a lasting service project: the construction of a Community Signboard in Kitengela, Kenya. Decorated with tiles and recycled glass similar to the project shown here the signboard will:
- Provide a safe, public location for Sikhona's online GPS registration
- Help educate community members on local support services, including Sikhona’s programs
- Create a central, safe & free space for community-led action
How You Can Support:
