PROJECT 1 Talent Development Actualization
​
Every child has a talent in one area or another. A talent can be something that a child is born with, but it can also be something that a child learns, develops, and comes to love.
Being talented isn’t about being famous or being the best. And talents are not limited to the most popular areas such as football and music. They exist in every area of life. It’s also important to recognise that talent is not only an end-product but also a process or journey that a child can follow and enjoy.
Parents are in a good position to recognise and help children’s talents to grow. But you can’t force a child to become talented at something that does not fit with their unique personality.
Support them to achieve their full potential by paying attention to their unique interests and fostering them.

PROGRAM AREAS and CURRENT PROJECTS
The foundation focuses its giving in the following areas that allow for improved quality of life in targeted communities
Current Region of Focus: Mwingi, Kenya
The Mtuals Foundation Inc. is currently focusing its efforts in supporting projects in the marginalized Mwingi,
Kenya. Mwingi lies in the Eastern part of Kenya, in Kitui County. A beautiful landscape surrounded by alluring
hills and inhabited by the hardworking and hospitable Kamba people. It has a 2015 population estimate of

square kilometres. The area experiences hot and dry climate with unreliable rainfall and high temperatures
throughout the year (ranging from 14°C to 34°C). This region has many challenges that make life difficult for
its inhabitants:

most common and treatable diseases. Where available, health clinics lack necessary medicines and
health personnel rendering patients helpless. -
Low education performance and low access and adaptation of modern technology.
