On his part, Mwayi Primary School Headmaster, Mac Lennan Kengere commended the youth group for the good gesture.

“We are very thankful for this donation. As teachers, we are aware that many children do not have enough materials as things are now expensive such that many parents are finding it hard to provide these writing materials to their children. 

“We do not take this for granted because the donated materials will make a difference,” Kengere said.

Meanwhile, the grouping is calling on other stakeholders to join hands with it so that it can reach out to many beneficiaries.

The donation was made possible with generous support from members of the group.
