Samwell Mbugua, Amanda Wendt and I met with the TEARS group to discuss funding opportunities available to the group and to assist with preparing the applications.







This TEARS art student was busy in their Art Studio. Fine art and graphics developed, motivated and gave professionalism to the student's interest. The main objective of the art program was to ensure that the individual's talent becomes useful as an income generating or soure of livelihood.
