A Day of Joy: JEKMA’s Day Out for Samaritan Children in Moshi
At JEKMA Organization, we believe that every child deserves to feel loved, included, and celebrated. Last year, we had the privilege of spending a beautiful day with the amazing children at Kili Home in Moshi, Kilimanjaro. These wonderful kids, who live with disabilities, welcomed us with open hearts, and together, we created memories filled with laughter, play, and shared moments of joy.
The day started with excitement as our volunteers joined the children in various activities—storytelling, music, dance, and outdoor games. Every moment was designed to be inclusive, making sure each child could participate and have fun in their own way. Beyond the games, the day was about connection—getting to know the kids, sharing smiles, and giving them a space to express themselves freely. Caregivers and volunteers also had the chance to bond, exchange experiences, and learn from each other, strengthening the support system around these children.
After an active morning, we all sat down to enjoy a meal together. There was warmth in the air—not just from the delicious food, but from the shared conversations and laughter that filled the space. It was a reminder of how simple moments of kindness can mean so much. Seeing the children’s joy reinforced our commitment to creating more opportunities like this, where they feel valued, supported, and included. This was more than just a day out—it was a celebration of love, resilience, and community. We can’t wait to do it again
