Joel Kariuki a father of two and a Primary School Teacher, also takes time to improve the lives of street children in Nyeri. Many of them are often brushed off, for what some see as their intrusive and rude character. Kariuki has however given paint brushes to the young men, and hopes activities such as art and sports can provide lessons, that can ultimately change their lives. NTV's Melita Oletenges spent the day with them, and brings us this heartwarming story.
