    Margaret Mschai Rises Above Life’s Challenges and Shares Her Future Aspirations

    June 3, 2014 /

    Margaret Mschai, a mother of two, makes her living by completing various tasks at the Wildlife Works Kasigau Corridor REDD+ eco-clothing factory, and is wholly grateful for it. Her tasks include trimming, folding and packaging the fabric and finished clothes. “I love what I do mostly because it is an important part in the chain of events that creates unique outfits for export,” she says, adding, “We cannot all be machinists or designers.

    Getting to know Daniel Munyao: Wildlife Works EPZ Factory Manager

    November 7, 2013 /

At a young age, Daniel was forced to stop attending due to the high financial stress it put on his parents.
