We welcome you to our site. Kindly feel free to share with us your thoughts. Ideas that add value will be appreciated. Ideas that want to make us improve our physical environment will be welcome. And more so, ideas that redirect us from the lost cause will be of immense value.

It is us who will improve the lot of our Environment, our Economy and make Kenya a Clean Country, where People join hands to work for our own Economic Emancipation and where Municipal Solid Waste Management is looked at as a resource, not as waste.

We need to set the standards in this region of the World and become the referral point in how a people can join hands and work for their own Economic Liberation, where waste can be used as raw material and become a source of employment for our people.

Our collective actions will surely make a difference. This is why in partnership with our Key Strategic Partners- The Public Service Transformation Department, the National Environment Management Authority, the Ministry of Environment and Mineral Resources, the Ministry of Public Health and Sanitation,other key Ministries, the Local Authorities in Kenya, the Provincial Administration, A Better World, Akiba Uhaki Foundation and other Partners, we are moving deliberately in sensitizing and mobilizing Kenyans to work towards A Clean Kenya where waste is separated at source.

And this is why we are inviting Kenyans to join with us in The Clean Kenya Campaign and be a Member of Kimisho Sacco Society Ltd

Welcome.

Towards the official launch of the 2nd Cirlce of the Campaign

Friends,
In the run up to the official launch of the 2nd Circle of The Monthly Nationwide Clean-up Campaign on the 22nd October 2011, we have lined up a series of activities.
First, we have held the Komarock Estate Consultative Forum which we hosted on the 6th October 2011 at The Hoggs Den in Komarock Phase 2. The following day, the 7th October 2011, I met Mzee Samuel Muchiri and Mzee Stephen Kamau- all from Huruma Estate to start planning for the Huruma Event.
Yesterday the 9th October 2011, in the company of Mr. Ochieng' Khairala and Ms Eileen Chelagat, we met the officials of Nyayo Embakasi Residents Association led by their Chairman Mr. George Ochola to help plan for The Nyayo Embakasi Consultative Forum which we will host on the 13th October 2011. In attendance we had Ms Lusy Wanjiru, Mr. Magut Richard, Ms Martha Owuor and Mr. Ikahu TM all from NERA. Besides discussing about The Best Practice visit by the Hon PC Nairobi, the Town Clerk CCN and the Head of Public Service Transformation Department- [and their delegations], we developed a programme for the day which we have herein enclosed.

Today the 10th October 2011, we are meeting with Mr. Joseph Lunani- the Managing Director of Maskil Company Limited. They have offered to re-do our website to capture the import of The Monthly Nationwide Clean-up Campaign. And on behalf of The Monthly Nationwide Clean-up Campaign Team, I must say a big Thank You to Mr. Lunani and his Team.
Tomorrow the 11th October 2011, we will be meeting with the Management of the National Social Security Fund at 4.00pm to discuss further how to work together in this Campaign and more specifically, the Best Practice visit by the PC, Town Clerk, Head PSTD and the Consultative Team.
On the 13th October 2011, we will be at Nyayo Embakasi Estate for the Nyayo Embakasi Consultative Forum. Again, this will be an open Forum where we will advance 3 Thematic Issues openly, namely;

  1. Environmental Management- Pitch by Mr. Isaac Muraya- the Director of Environment at the City Council of Nairobi
  2. Peace Building- Pitch by Mr. Ochieng' Khairala from the Living Life Foundation
  3. Good Governance- Pitch by Ms Florence Kanyua and Odhiambo T Oketch- both from KCDN
On the 14th October 2011, we will be meeting the DO Huruma and his area Chiefs, Assistant Chiefs and Headmen for a planning session at the DOs office in Huruma at 10am.
On the 18th October 2011, we will host The Huruma Estate Consultative Forum in Huruma where we will engage 250 opinion leaders in our last major build-up effort to the official launch of the 2nd Circle of The Monthly Nationwide Clean-up Campaign.
I must appreciate all The Consultative Team members who have put in efforts to make sure that the launch of the 2nd Circle of this Campaign becomes a success on the 22nd October 2011. We must also appreciate the Public Service Transformation Department Office of the Prime Minister for their support with the Consultative Forums as we approach the official launch.
We also want to appreciate the Provincial Administration, City Council of Nairobi, Brand Kenya Board, Kenya Private Sector Alliance, the Wildlife Clubs of Kenya, Special Needs Empowerment Programme, Global Peace Youth Corps, The Royal Media Services, the Living Light Foundation and the staff of KCDN who have worked had to make sure everything moves on well.

Lastly, we want to thank all the Friends of KCDN who have kept this campaign alive. We must appreciate Akiba Uhaki Foundation, A Better World and Phoenix Aviation Ltd for all their continued support. We know we will drive this campaign together as we help in Transforming Kenya.
