Our Work

Class Coach At Cheleta Primary School

Cheleta Primary School in Runda/Huruma VIllage, is our first school in Kenya. At the first class coach session in October 2018, nine volunteers from different employers met over 60 students in grade 5, divided into three groups. We continued with the same students during three sessions in 2019. 

“We really appreciate the My Dream Now program!

It has had a very positive effect on our students. They have improved a lot academically, gained self confidence and become more creative. My Dream Now’s greatest contribution is to make them understand their talent.” 

Mary Kimani, Principal at  Cheleta Primary School, Nairobi

“My Dream Now has helped me gain self confidence and encourage me that my talent could be a career.”

Study Visit – Cheleta Primary School to DHL and APA Insurance

In March 2020, 40 students from Cheleta Primary school class 7 got an opportunity of their lives as we took them to spend a day at a workplace. They were received by the top management at both entities and got to spend at least half day touring the offices, trying out some simple tasks, and sharing meals together with the staff.

The excitement was written all over their faces and they have never forgotten how important that trip and attention made them feel.

“We come from a very humble school, very humble. Our background is a kind of background that you cannot like. So having this kind of exposure, we feel privileged and I am sure in the lives of these small kids you have made a very very great difference”
Mary – Class teacher since the program started

“I want to thank My Dream Now for taking us to this trip. If its not for them we could not have learnt more, and I want to thank DHL for accepting us” – Student

Class Coach Session at New Dawn Education Center

New Dawn is a private high school located at Mji wa Huruma in the outskirts of Runda estate. On February 14, 2020, we started a class coach program with 24 Form two students and 6 class coaches from different employers and professions including Photographer, soccer coach, life coach, IT Specialist. It was a very interactive session as the students got to prepare their dream collage.

“The session has been good and we have learnt a lot. This collage is like my view and it represents me. Ronaldo here is a famous guy and I would like to be like him. We have had fun and would like to welcome you next time” James – Student

We look forward to continuing with the sessions when schools resume in 2021.
