It was a special day for Malaa Secondary School in Tawa, Mbooni West Constituency, Makueni County when Green Africa Foundation turned the entire school into a ?walking Forest.? The Chair, Dr. Isaac Kalua, led the Green Team in attending the event which was graced by the Makueni County Senator, Hon. Mutula Kilonzo Jr. The Occasion was organized by Mr. Benson Kimithi of USAID, who is also the founder of BMK Foundation.
Green Africa Foundation in partnership with Cooper K Brands Ltd, donated a total of 5,000 tree seedlings which were all planted in the school compound and in the neighboring homesteads. The school?s principal, Mr. Timothy Kitiva, led his teaching staff and members of BOG, to thank Green Africa Foundation, the Senator and the BMK Foundation for the special privilege they extended to the school. He promised to ensure that all trees planted in the school grew to maturity. Senator Mutula Kilonzo Jr. promised to assist the school in all its development projects. Every student in the school adopted a tree.

That sounds so sweet that every children in the school now has a tree for their own. I have a friend who once named his olive tree Athena. I hope this event will help children to have more eco friendly mindset. Thanks!

I like the title of your report 'Walking Forest'. By donating 5000 seedlings and heloing in planting them all across the school, you people from 'Green Africa Foundation' actually generated a walking forest. Thanks for sharing.
