Children on Watch

A new children's organization, 'Ecological Watch' was created in the Ukraine on Earth Day, 22 April. Its first congress by schoolchildren from High School No. 8. Their presentation was devoted to research in the field of eco-ethics a task the children are fulfilling under the supervision of their teacher L. Marchukova. Young ecologists from Sevastopol are studying the state of the Gasfort Mountain over a long period of time, helping to manage order in the territory of Maximov Dacha (a historical-landscape reserve), planting trees, and controlling the condition of most polluted areas of the city.

To EEIU Headquarters

05.03.01

Lots of greetings from the EEIU Sare Chapter in Kenya.

I am pleased to confirm that we received from Inter-Research the DM 4500,00 sent to us for purchasing our office computer and printer. We acquired very good machines. The Chapter`s steering committee will now arrange the installation of the telephone line, and have the e-mail services running. I suggested to them to offer e-mail services to the interested public at a small fee to help cater for the monthly costs of telephone expenses and other pressing office overhead costs.

As concerns the use of the letter of authority sent to us by EEIU Headquarters, I presented the same to the relevant bodies. The Awendo Town Council confirmed to us in writing (I will forward a copy to you) that they alocated to us a total of 0.2 acres of land for the development of our office space.

This was good news to our members and a good indication that the people had lots of appreciation and hope about our activities. I take it as a big challenge. My next task is to work out means and ways of putting up some structures in the space allocated. Compared to other EEIU chapters, we could then be the first chapter to have in place our own offices and independent grounds for taking up and co-ordinating chapter activities.

Thanks for your unfailing support and cooperation, and warm regards,

Okeyo Benards
Chair, EEIU Sare Chapter, Kenya

Reply from Otto Kinne

Dear Okeyo,

Congratulations! The allocation to your Chapter of a total of 0.2 acres of land by the Awendo Town Council is a major step forward. I am sure the Council will be pleased with the performance of the EEIU Sare Chapter and with the resulting benefits for Kenya.

Please convey my sincere gratitude to the Council and my best wishes to the members of your Chapter.

Kind regards,

Otto Kinne
President, EEIU
