How I got involved

My husband - Seboru Sikujua - is a cement kiln operator and works for East African portland Cement Ltd.: http://www.eastafricanportland.com

In 2008 he attended a cement production seminar in Denmark, where he met with the founder of Pens for Kids Denmark - Claus Hjørnet - who was teaching at the seminar, and they agreed to make me a Pens for Kids Ambassador.

Handing out pens

I preffer to assist schools in my rural home which is about 400 km from Nairobi, in a place known as TAVETA which boaders Tanzania on Mt Kilimanjaro side. Some of the needy schools are: Challa Primary School, Ziwani Primary School, Maandakini Primary School, Chokaa Primary School and St Joseph Primary School. On Thursday 5th i distributed the pens to St Joseph Pri School. The entire school was very happy and thankful.

Below you can see some pictures from the occasion.
