Recognizing that education is a pathway out of poverty, the Davis & Shirtliff Improving Lives Initiative has partnered with The Rotary District 9212 to combat the threat of COVID-19 in 40 Kenyan public schools.

The partnership has looped in 27 Rotary Clubs across the country and will improve the lives of over 38,000 lives. The partnership will see to the donation of handwashing stations to the 40 schools across the county. The project was kicked off at Plainsview Primary School in South B, where the donation of five handwashing stations was made. Since then, 10 schools have received the handwashing stations and have all expressed their gratitude for the donations. The Rotary, D&S partnership was pioneered by finance director George Mbugua, and Rotarian, Dr. Patrisio Njeru, both of whom are pictured below.
