Cura kids helping their families until they go back to school
Up until the covid crisis hit, Edward was enrolled in his course at Masai Technical Training Institute and living on campus in Kajiado. He was on track to complete his studies next year, but his future is as uncertain as that of all of his peers these days. He has moved back to his grandparents' home and helps earn his keep by working on their plot of land. Kenya's population still heavily relies on subsistence farming, so these are also good skills for him to sharpen. That it helps keep food on the table is, of course, the crucial result of his labor. We are so proud of Edward, and out other young people, for continuing to contribute to their extended communities as we all shelter in place!
