During the July 2008 mission to Nairobi, Kenya, various works/projects were completed, to improve the structural aspects and increase the capacity of Langata. The following projects were completed:
- Two new additional dormitories and an extra classroom were added. The classrooms were furnished with updated blackboards and desks.
- The library/ recreation hall was renovated for health and safety reasons and equipped with books and games, thanks to the donations from generous individuals and schools in Toronto.
- An infirmary was erected to treat children who are ill.
- A fenced walkway was assembled, leading to the washroom facilities, to avoid attacks from guard dogs that are used for security during the night.
- Furthermore, as a part of the children’s personal, social development and group formation, a new program was implemented, involving a social worker and/or psychologist if needed.
- Missionaries taught English, Math, Science, Catechism as well as crafts and personal hygiene. The children also participated in sports such as volleyball, soccer and other games.
