Starting 18 th April 2024, heavy rains and floods wreaked havoc across Kenya, resulting in loss of lives, property and service disruption. Transport, housing, education, health and agriculture were the most affected sectors.

It was with a joyous heart that after 4 years we were able to celebrate our National Day on Monday, 8th April 2024, the day of the Annunciation.
