Speaking during a visit organised by the SaVE Communities Initiative on December 30, Dr Kithure emphasised that Kenya’s future stability and leadership are being shaped far beyond formal classrooms and traditional homes. Instead, she said, children’s homes and caregiving institutions are quietly laying the foundation for peace, progress, and responsible citizenship. “Meaningful development begins with investing in children,” Dr. Kithure said, noting that nurturing children today determines the quality of leadership and values Kenya will uphold tomorrow. The visit also served as recognition of the often-unseen labour carried out by caregivers and institutions working with vulnerable children. As the festive season encourages reflection and generosity, Dr. Kithure urged Kenyans to view care for vulnerable children as a shared responsibility.
