Karen Blixen Coffee Garden | 28 November 2025

Consolation joined partners, community members, and well-wishers at the First Jenga Tournament, hosted by Enkerai Sidai at Karen Blixen Coffee Garden, as part of a creative fundraising initiative to support the construction of a children’s protection unit in Ngong. The event demonstrated an innovative approach to resource mobilization—bringing people together through games, enjoyment, and social interaction while advancing a critical child protection cause.

The tournament provided a relaxed and inclusive space where participants engaged in friendly competition, networked, and shared a collective commitment to supporting vulnerable children. Through the simple yet engaging game of Jenga, the event successfully created awareness on the importance of safe shelter, care, and protection for children at risk, while fostering strong community participation.

As a member of the County Steering Committee for the Child Protection Unit, Consolation views such initiatives as vital pathways to strengthen community-led child protection responses. Creative fundraising models like the Jenga Tournament not only mobilize resources but also build public ownership, social responsibility, and partnerships that are essential for sustainable child welfare interventions.

The event successfully raised funds toward the construction of the children’s shelter in Ngong and strengthened collaboration among stakeholders united by a shared purpose. Consolation appreciates the leadership of Enkerai Sidai and the collective efforts of all partners and participants whose contributions made the initiative impactful.

The First Jenga Tournament stands as a powerful example of how fun, innovation, and solidarity can drive meaningful social change. Consolation remains committed to supporting creative, community-driven approaches that enhance child protection systems and improve the lives of vulnerable children in Kajiado County and beyond.
