Hon. Sang further emphasized that environmental conservation is a collective duty, not the preserve of government agencies or environmental groups alone. He pledged the County Government of Nandi’s continued support toward the growth of the newly established Kaimosi Friends University Kobujoi Campus, calling on local leaders, residents, and students to rally behind initiatives that promote sustainability and academic excellence in the region.

During the event, over 2,000 fruit seedlings were planted around Kobujoi, transforming the area into a greener, more vibrant learning and trading environment. Members of the KAFU Beauty and Pageant Club worked alongside teams from Aldai Technical Training Institute, St. Peters Clevers Comprehensive School, Equity Bank (Kapsabet Branch), and Kaimosi Friends University Campus  Kobujoi Campus students in cleaning the Kobujoi market and surrounding areas.

This community engagement underscores that the KAFU Beauty and Pageant Club goes beyond promoting confidence, talent, and creativity as it also champions social responsibility and environmental awareness.

Through such initiatives, the club continues to demonstrate that beauty with purpose is a powerful force for change and that Kaimosi Friends University remains committed to nurturing responsible, world-ready citizens who serve their communities with passion and impact.
