On March 9th, 2024, a group from Kabarak University's Nakuru City Campus, including the Christian Union, Peer Counselors, and AYLF Club, embarked on a community outreach program to Nakuru Hill Special School. Led by their patron, Ms. Veronicah Kombich, the group aimed to spread love and support to the school's special needs students.
Inspired by Maya Angelou's words, "People will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel," the group focused on creating a positive and memorable experience for the students.
The day's activities began with Jefharison Okisegere sharing an inspirational message about love and its importance. The interactive session resonated with both the students and staff members present. Following the message, the group engaged in a fun and interactive snack time, assisting with meal service and ensuring everyone had a chance to enjoy the food.
Demonstrating the value of service, the group then helped with cleaning the utensils, kitchen, and dining hall. Their commitment extended to the school's environment, where they participated in slashing grass and picking up litter around the administration block.
The day culminated in a joyful music session where the students showcased their impressive dancing skills. The spirit of togetherness and the students' enthusiasm brought the event to a fitting close.
Reflecting on the experience, the group found resonance with the scripture passage mentioning faith, hope, and charity, ultimately agreeing that "the greatest of these is charity"
