Bernard and Emmanuel pass out in the heat!

Emmanuel and Bernard have just passed out! It was a hot, sunny day, but that wasn't why they passed out!

The two young men have just completed 6 month's military style training in Kenya's National Youth Service (NYS). Having successfully passed out, they will now continue to do several months of community service before receiving training (both want to learn to handle construction machinery).

Emmanuel and Bernard were both brought up at the Tumaini Children's Home and after leaving school, joined NYS. 

Their placement of the training scheme was organised by Anne Wanjiru who runs the Maisha Bora for Youth programme which provides talented young people from deprived circumstance the opportunity to achieve their dreams!
