COMMUNITY PROJECT

Community projects planned by Smart Haven are exactly what we do to benefit our community, especially in NYANZA District. There is much we can do to help the development in our area. We’ve put together a list of community service project ideas, organized by what we’ll be doing. Mr. SHINGIRO Gilbert often spoke of a Beloved Community–-one that requires acts of service based on justice and equal opportunities. Whether that’s collecting, teaching, volunteering, or something else, you should be able to find something to inspire you to get out there and do, or you can even donate to our projects. Your donation can not be small, it will change someone's life.
