“You don’t have to be Safaricom to do CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility)”. This was the message we were sharing with guests at our Kumi Kommunity event in Nairobi on Saturday. There are many ways in which small businesses can engage with our work and add value through sharing skills and knowledge as well as offering financial support. In fact – even your business’s trash can be used to support our work.
