On June 29, 2020, the Kenya Scouts Association launched a campaign to combat the spread of Covid-19 in the country, particularly in informal settlements.
The Association donated face masks, hand sanitizers, liquid soap, and water tanks to at least 2,000 families in Kibera, Mathare, and Kamukunji constituencies.
Speaking at the flagging off event, the Association's national executive commissioner, Mr. Moses Danda, emphasized the importance of community outreach in preventing the spread of the virus.
He noted that the Association has also reached out to various communities in Nyeri, Kajiado, Siaya, Mombasa, and Kilifi with Covid-19 preventive and sensitization programs.
Scouts across the country have undergone training on Covid-19 preventive measures and are making a difference in their communities by sensitizing them on the same on various online platforms.
Ms. Risper Omala, the Communications Officer at the Association, urged like-minded partners to join the fight against the spread of the virus.
