Laini-saba

grounds starting at 10 a.m to 4 p.m.

We'll be honoured to have you in attendance to celebrate and

recognize various talents by young people in Kibera.It is a rare

opportunity

for you to see for yourself, what young people are capable of doing

on their

own and ascertain the progress that can be made in community

development if

they can be accorded appropriate support.

Through generous support from friends of KCYP, the artist will be

awarded

presents and certificates in recognition of their efforts in fighting

HIV/AIDS

through arts. Efforts are also being made to assist the winners in

recording

their songs, plays etc and professional training in enhancing their

productions.In attendance will be,representatives from the World

We are looking forward to the support of the media in highlighting

the numerous

talents in Kibera towards finding mutual support in nurturing them to

create

sustainable livelihoods for youth of Kibera in this era of

unemployment

problems in the country.

Let us join our efforts towards winning the war against AIDS through

the

numerous talents that young people have; while assisting them to

create

sustainable livelihood ventures with an aim of eradicating extreme

poverty.

As young people, we have a responsibility to create change in our

society; it is

upon us to think creatively and independently towards the change that

we want

to see. Your support will make this a reality.

Yours Sincerely,
