Christians and local agencies such as the Local Authority Transfer Fund (LATF), Constituency Development Fund (CDF) among others have been asked to give assistance to children from needy families to enable them pursue their education.
Addressing Christians today at St. Augustine's Cathedral Lodwar, Vicar General Fr. Joseph Ekalimon, said that it was sad to see children fail to go to school due to poverty and yet acquiring education was one of the keys to solving some of the problems faced by the community.
Meanwhile, needy parents have been asked to forward the names of their children to the Diocesan bursary office through their respective Small Christian Communtities (Jumuyas).
Announcing this in the church after the second mass, St. Agustine's Church Committee Secretary, Richard Ruto, said that consideration will be only given to needy cases.
