Fantastic to see Masami Sato, the founder of Buy One Give One (B1G1), visiting projects we support in Turkana. Thank you B1G1 for shining a light on the amazing progress being made by the communities we are helping to thrive.
Masamiโs journey through Kenya has begun, and we've just received the first powerful updates from the ground.
In Turkana, one of the driest regions of Northern Kenya, Masami witnessed a quiet but extraordinary transformation.
