Be the Gift, Be the Light: Stories of My Mother’s Legacy
Grace Kuto's long-awaited book honoring her mother’s legacy is guaranteed to inspire. Funds raised from this book support a growing investment fund used for future Muyoka Scholarship recipients.
Maria Muyoka, Grace's mother, was small in physical stature and lived a short, but impactful life. She imparted many words of wisdom through her gift of counseling. She touched many souls in the Chwele community, feeding anyone in need and offering warm hospitality. Her gifts became a beacon of light in her community that spread across the globe with many generations of offspring carrying her name onward.
Harambee Centre has decided to name the fund in honor of the gifts and light that Maria Muyoka shared with each of us. Donate today to get your copy of the book and to read more about her impact.
