With 115 #MajengoKids, we go through a lot of food, feeding hungry tummies. 🍚🌽🥬
.
While we're glad to be able to keep these bellies filled, many in the broader Majengo community struggle with food security, especially as they continue to contend with the difficulties of COVID-19. That's why, this year, we're hoping to provide food packs to 500 families in the Majengo community, through our Food for 500 initiative.

Donate now at majengo.org and help us keep the Majengo community fed!

With the extra space around some of the houses at Majengo, we have decided to plant new gardens. We have been able to harvest many things this year including spinach, lettuce, tomatoes, onions and eggplant! Being able to grow all these vegetables significantly reduces the cost of fresh produce at Majengo which is all part of our sustainability plan. 🍅🧅🍆

Nothing quite like a mama!
.
Each child at the centre has a Majengo mama who looks out for them. They are there to ensure that they have all their needs met both at the home and at the centre. A few times a year, the children go out with their mamas for meals and to spend quality time talking about how they are doing. 💚💛💙
.
Supporting the costs for care at Majengo helps us provide each child with the best possible support system as they grow up. Donate online at www.majengo.org to support our mamas and babas who make Majengo the loving home it is today.
