YOMOSCO is transforming lives in Nairobi, Kenya. Their programs have had a immense impact to the community members. I had the opportunity to visit the organization and was welcomed with warmth and enthusiasm. The dedication of the staff and the unwavering determination of the women they serve truly shows the spirit of resilience. I urge anyone who is passionate about empowering women and making a tangible difference in the lives of others to consider volunteering with YOMOSCO. #Letsputasmileontheirfaces
