Welcome to Jipange
The Coronavirus Pandemic has taken its toll in Kenya and the African continent as a whole. While Kenya accounts for relatively few confirmed cases and deaths, the death toll sits at 1,874 as of March of 2021. At Jipange, we are taking all necessary precautions to help contain the spread of the disease. Being in a rural area where medical resources are not as readily available as they are in big cities, it is even more important that we take action to ensure we are all safe and healthy.
We are happy to announce that all classes have resumed. In doing so, our message still remains……. Remember to do the FIVE:
1. HANDS Wash them often, 2. ELBOW Cough into it, 3. FACE Don’t touch it, 4. FEET Stay more than 6 feet apart, 5. FEEL sick stay home
