vision africa moving day

A couple of weeks ago, a group of 26 volunteers came together to help one of our friends, Vision Africa, which had recently moved premises. The task for the day was to carry all the furniture, equipment and other items that had been stored in a nearby building, sort them and set them up in their new location.

For almost 4 hours, the team worked tirelessly alongside staff and students from Vision Africa to ensure that the job was completed. Of course as this was an SDG deed, there was a fun atmosphere with laughter, music and even dancing at some points! There was also an opportunity for the volunteers to learn about the work of Vision Africa from Programs Manager Mary Mwangi.

Our thanks go to all the volunteers who gave up time on a Saturday…and lots of energy…to complete this deed. Thanks also to Vision Africa for the opportunity to serve and for the delicious meal of githeri that was provided for volunteers.
​
If you are interested in participating in future SDG deeds, please get in touch.

PS. Don’t just take our word for it that the day was great….here’s what our volunteers had to say
  • “The TRF staff were very friendly and it was nice to know they practise what they preach”.
  • “For the first time in my life, I feel like I have really given back to the community. It was fun and so worth it!”
  • “I am glad to know that my sweat will be of benefit in seeing someone acquire knowledge”.
  • “This was a learning experience that taught me to respect people and the jobs they do. It is not easy work. When you get to wear another person’s shoe is when you learn to value what they do”.
  • “The whole activity was a reflection of Christianity in action. I am happy to say that I showed love to someone I may never meet in person”.
  • “The warmth, the love, the laughter, the teamwork and the food qualified the day to be my best so far this year!”
