The ANN WANGUI IRURA story
Manage episode 449811454 series 3233978
During a golf session for youngsters at Kenya Railway Golf Club you can hear the shouts of joy as children with a disability play on a golf course for the first time. “Watching the kids sharing something special as they play golf together, it makes everything worthwhile,” says Ann Wangui Irura.
Anita, as friends call her, is an administration assistant at a school for children with special needs in Nairobi called Kenya Community Centre for Learning (KCCL). Eight years ago when trying different sports to engage with the students, she tried golf and realised the game could help them to focus on a task and see personal improvement. Something clicked.
Today, Anita is the founder of the community venture Golden Tee Inclusive Golf, bringing the game to disadvantaged youngsters with a disability, changing lives through the power of golf.
