Interested to improve education in Laikipia during Covid 19 pandemic

Purity Gitonga is a peace ambassador who has devoted much of her time working with the less privileged in the society during the Covid 19 pandemic.

Gitonga has moved to share resources with school going children who have been cut short from accessing their education due to lack of access to social media.

During this pandemic when millions of poor children cannot afford internet connection in their homes due to poverty, Gitonga has been criss crossing the villages donating reading materials to keep them busy.

Speaking to The Mountain Journal she said many of the children cannot access social media to continue with learning yet their parents cannot afford Ipads to simplify their revision of textbooks.

“So far have donated 200 revision text books online, while another 200 are distributed door to door,” said Gitonga.

Her quest is to donate more reading materials to help transform the country.

Her desire for a corrupt free nation propelled her to establish Taifa Peace Ambassadors, a Non-profit making organisation that partnered with PLO Lumumba Foundation.

Gitonga is committed to fighting the vices that have eaten our noble country and the continent of Africa like Corruption, negative ethnicity and Tribalism.
