Bringing Hope, One Child at a Time! Meet Ian Mbugwa, a young boy we met at the Dandora dumpsite: collecting waste for survival. He had lost hope of joining Junior Secondary School, but today, his story has changed! From Dandora to Thika, then Kamware Center, we ensured Ian was enrolled in a boarding school. We provided uniforms and essential supplies to give him a fresh start. This, to me, is the best birthday gift—restoring hope through quality education! As the founder of Transformers Mathare, I may be tired in body, but my spirit is truly elated. Thank you to everyone who made this possible! Together, we are transforming lives. #EducationForAll #HopeRestored #TransformersMathare #ChangingLives
