Immaculate, one of the best performing final year students at the centre, benefited from Jubilee’s support of girl child education in the country. The initiative was made in partnership with the Canadian High Commission, at their recent Golf Tournament at the Windsor Golf and Country Club. Immaculate is a girl guide and a role model for many of the younger girls at the Centre, and she intends to pursue a career in dentistry after completing college. Promoting and furthering the education and training of children in Kenya is one of the mandates of the Jubilee Children Fund which was launched in 2007. Its other core mandate is alleviating hardships faced by underprivileged children in the areas of medical care. The Fund is supported by Jubilee employees who donate one day’s salary per year towards its objectives. Jubilee matches the contribution and donates the profits from one day’s operations each year. Embracing the spirit of giving The Jubilee team is a socially responsible group of people who regularly dedicate their time to improving the society and community in which they live. Every year, a group of staff and agents visit a children’s home and spend the day playing with the children and looking after them. In 2010, the Jubilee Retail Medical Sales team visited the Abandoned Baby Centre (ABC) in Dagoretti, which is home to about 70 children ranging from infants to 4 year olds who are in dire need of medical attention. A donation of funds and supplies was also made on behalf of the company. Regular visits to children’s homes are amongst other activities that Jubilee encourages its team to engage in because it is an opportunity for them to appreciate the needs of the community they live in, and build a strong united team that is able to tackle tasks together.
