Uniroyal heroes
The caregiver discussions, outdoor games with the children, glitter “germs” health lessons, art and drawing, income generating and financial literary classes were all enthusiastically embraced. The children loved the soccer balls donated by Uniroyal. Their usual balls are formed from rags or old plastic bags wound together to form a ball. They lost no time in initiating the new treasures. The women also embraced new opportunities. The week after we left 15 women had already formed a joint venture to hone their paper bead-making skills (“we have to learn how to make really good ones”) and to form a katemba or small business to benefit the school. They loved learning about the wonders of calculators!
