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.

The Month of July Projections- TCKC

Friends,
The Month of June 2012 was enterprising, busy and it gave us the best grounding for The Clean Kenya Campaign-TCKC.
We had lots of Board Room meetings with Strategic Partners and we are moving well with the Consultations that we had initiated.
In Partnership with the National Environment Management Authority, the City Council of Nairobi, the Provincial Administration and other Partners, we hosted a very successful World Environment Day Clean-up Campaign along both Jogoo and Landhies Roads on the 5th June 2012 to mark the World Environment Day.
This was attended by the Provincial Director of Environment Nairobi, Senior Managers from the City Council of Nairobi and the Provincial Administration. The climax of the day was an Exhibition on Green Energy at the Star of Hope Primary School in Industrial Area that was graced by the PC Nairobi Mr. Njoroge Ndirangu.
Again on the 23rd June 2012, to mark the 3rd Saturday of the Month, the Zetech Group of Colleges led about 300 students from their 5 Town Compasses in the months Clean-up Campaign that targeted Haile Sellassie Avenue, Moi Avenue, Harambee Avenue, Tom Mboya Street and parts of River Road in a process that was so successful.  The City Council of Nairobi were at hand with working tools and their ever hard working staffers as usual.
In between these engagements, we had several planning sessions with the City Council of Nairobi, the National Environment Management Authority, the Public Service Transformation Department and several other partners to enable us host a Consultative Forum on Waste Management in Nairobi at Charter Hall on the 11th of July 2012.
This will be a Forum with a difference. We want to come out with actionable resolutions that will help us initiate a Pilot Process on Separation of Waste at Source in Nairobi from 1st August and in Mombasa, Kisumu, Eldoret and Nyeri from 1st September 2012.
The Forum will be addressed by the 5 Town Clerks in the Presence of our Guests. We will let you know who our Guests of Honours for this Forum will be. If you have some added value to the process, you are invited to attend and share in your thinking.
