EXCITING NEWS: Bold Impact Africa and Safe Haven. were awarded the winner of the 2024 Alumni Engagement Innovation Fund (AEIF) at a ceremony held at the U.S. Embassy Nairobi on 5th September 2024. Impact Africa in the leadership of Nyaga Wa Wanjiru and Safe Haven Spaces will implement the project "Promoting Inclusive Farmer Livelihoods through the Adoption of Climate-Smart Agricultural Practices and Technologies in Potato Production" in Njoro, Nakuru County. The project will address the adverse effects of climate-induced challenges such as droughts, floods, and heatwaves, which have increasingly disrupted food production and livelihoods for smallholder farmers. The project will focus on building resilience and adapting to climate change through climate-smart practices like water retention technologies and drought-resistant crop varieties to ensure stable crop yields, reduced environmental impact, and increased farmer incomes.

The project will directly benefit smallholder farmers in Nakuru by promoting sustainable agricultural methods and technologies. The project emphasizes inclusivity, particularly the involvement of farmers with disabilities, who are often marginalized in climate-resilience initiatives.
The AEIF award is also in celebration of the 10th anniversary of the Mandela Washington Fellowship for Young African Leaders where Simon and I are alumni of the program of the 2021 cohort.

We deeply appreciate the U.S. Department of State through the U.S. Embassy Nairobi for this great opportunity to drive change by addressing the challenges faced by the often marginalized disability community in Kenya

Who said that persons with disabilities are limited?? Have you met the Safe Haven upskilling hub trainees, these are called mountain movers, limitless and independent people.
Learning and mastering five different skills isn't easy but remember WE ARE OUR OWN LIMITS.
KUDOS TO THE TEAM, WE KEEP MOVING.

Safe Haven Spaces bore Safe Haven upskilling hub a center where 10 persons with disabilities are being trained on five different skills . Acquiring skills makes most of them independent hence fully relying on themselves.
Day one at the America Corner Nakuru was very successful where the applicants got to receive Dread waxing and Gel nail tech application ,, thanks to Stephen Karugu
This was an awesome moment seeing persons of different disabilities participating in the up skills and also revamping their existing skills
The training will go on for several weeks and we are so grateful to the U.S. Embassy Nairobi , Exchange Programs - U.S. Department of State , , Jacky Ndungwa Waiharo and Pwani Teknowgalz for giving us this great opportunity to pass on skills to youthful youths of the marginalized groups.
