Talk & Help project is a wonderful opportunity for exchange program between Nigeria and Poland, the students have opportunity to know about the culture and history of both countries and it has spark a wonderful friendship among the students.
Monica Wanjiru, Entito Africa
Funds received from GoodNetwork have kept our university students in school. We have also initiated the process of electricity connection in JoyYard Academy.
Feedback from Pupils/Students in program:
Miriam (Olkeri school): I love learning about the polish people and their culture which is different from ours but very beautiful. Also their national flag has simple colours that would not be difficult to remember.
Eric (Joy Yard): I never had the desire to learn about the western culture but now I am very interested. When I grow up I will be a pilots that I can travel to many countries and learn about different people
Teacher Mary (Olkeri school):
The online lessons have boosted the curiosity of my students. They are more active and inquisitive which is really good for their learning. We need more online lessons to learn about Poland as we teach them who we really are.
Teacher Elisheba: At first I was apprehensive about the online lessons but sharing our school life and educational process in our school with the Polish teachers has sparked an interest in me to learn their methods of teaching so I can apply that in my classes.

Charles Juma – Outering Schools, Nairobi
Joining GoodNetwork Talk and Help programs helped the school get funding for infrastructural development that was not going to possible without the funds from the partner schools in the programs from Poland.
We thank GoodNetwork management for organizing the Talk and Help for us without which would not have had piped water in our school today . This is one of the biggest benefits we have received though the Talk and help programs.
The pupils/students liked the online activities. Majority who were shy to use technology in learning were able to get used to the sessions. Created exposer to them to learn new cultures and living habits in Poland. Created avenues for the teachers to use digital learning devices as prescribed by Kenya’s competency Based curriculum and created another refreshing avenues of learning ways from normal class lessons.
We really thank the schools involved from Poland which took part in the Talk and Help Program.

Namakula Eroln – Edea Uganda
Talk&Help program is an opportunity to build skills and capacity for these children in school to facilitate development and improved livelihoods.
Also, this will be a great contribution to the Country’s welfare and its citizens (the Youth).
Our students are unable to stay in school because they cannot afford school fees to complete the school term. Therefore, they require financial assistance to be able to fulfil the requirements and necessities to attain an education. They look forward to greatly benefiting from this opportunity with GoodNetwork.
Yaqoob Sadiq – Joy Foundation, Pakistan
Joy Foundation started collaboration with GoodNetwork Poland in their project Talk & Help in 2018. In which we organize lessons with different schools in Poland from time to time. Through this our children are very much happy. They talk with children from other parts of the world and also through this way they learn English from each other and also about different topics.
Through this project Joy Foundation and our school have great financial support for our school and other projects. Till now our children have free books and uniforms through this project. We install Solar system as there is no electricity and also have a water system for the children in school. We also support families in the village for the solar system somehow so their children can study at night with the light. During the COVID-19 GoodNetwork and his partner schools support our communities for the food packages as during these days they did not have work because of the lockdown.

Experiencia que nos ha dado a continuar buscando alianzas para seguir firmes en este proyecto motivador.
Charles Ouma, Ramunde Twaweza Based Organisation
Talk&Help is a special project that creates unity in diversity. The project gives children and teenagers opportunity to showcase their various cultures to their friends across the globe. In so doing they get informed, educated and entertained. During online meetings, the participants sing, dance and explain concepts and ideas around their environment. Discussions about how community, National and Religious celebrations are done form part of the topics during the meetings. The meetings help our village girls improve their self esteem and communication skills. Those who are gifted with talents, feel happy participating because this is a platform to show what they know and can do. In Ramunde Village, Talk and Help project is assisting us empower girls through education and vocational skills. Already a tailoring project has been initiated through the support received from Talk and Help project. Any support donated to Ramunde twaweza community based education will always translate to hygiene pack for girls, education and purchase of a tool for work to expand the vocational training. Talk and help project is A TIE THAT BINDS, we are happy and thankful.
Enitha Shallykeen Mahinya, Ntonzo Secondary School, Tanzania
Talk & Help project has been a great opportunity for us that has awakened our students to want to learn more about how their peers from Poland learn/study, live, and learn the way of life of young people. Good Network has also given our teenagers the opportunity to get educational support so that they can be educated and bring development in our communities and the nation at large. Good Network gave us chance to build up new skills and capacities by running different lessons on leadership which has helped us to become good leaders and therefore develop our institution. We are very thankful.
