It enables parents to receive targeted and action oriented messages based on when and where the child was born or conceived. These messages are able to highlight any warning signs in a child's health, connect mothers with local hospitals, among others. That a simple mobile app can help reduce maternal deaths and infant mortality and achieve soo much in its first 6 months was enough inspiration for the day.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Sylfaen, serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 18.3999996185303px;">The key lessons for me were; that we are not in competition so let’s collaborate and work together, people will always come on board once you start so start now and the rest shall follow, a social venture can sustain itself and make profit and finally, it doesn’t have to be complex, simple is supreme think of toto health.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Sylfaen","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 18.3999996185303px;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Sylfaen","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 18.3999996185303px;">Events such as the Celebrating women event are vital for every YALI network member. Hard questions were asked to those presenting. Questions such as “<i>how do you intend to sustain your project?” </i>are eye opening and make one rethink their project – they bring out the practicability of the project. It is always wise to see your project through someone else’s eyes.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Sylfaen","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 18.3999996185303px;">Any networking event opens doors for new contacts, contacts you can partner and collaborate with. There is always a free flow of information where people share their stories both of success and failures and who knows, potential mentorship opportunity.<o:p></o:p></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Sylfaen","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 18.3999996185303px;">YALI network Kenya is a powerful tool that has potential of changing lives in Kenya if used wisely. So far through the network, people who never knew each other from different parts of this country have connected, others are collaborating and partnering in different projects, others have found mentors and others have found people who gave great input to their projects. Let us put our differences together, hold each other’s hands and move our country forward. There is power in numbers, let us leave footprints behind so that those who will come can know that we were here.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Don't blame me for being nostalgic - I love the way we do it at YALI Nairobi... so looking back is the real deal for me - don't get me wrong I am a natural visionary... but this is YALI exception allowed.</div>
<br />
So anyway 25th was really awesome and here are the highlights<br />

1. We have 46,000 applicants and 500 get selected what can we who share this common passion come together and do as young leaders with or without making the cut for the fellowship<br />
<br />
2. Other than coming and having a meetup once a month how much more can we impact each others projects and create synergies if we are working on similar projects?<br />
<br />
3. Can we have a forum where people with real projects on the ground engage with Young Leaders?<br />
<br />
Tough questions - but on the bright side... we are all Young African Leaders I know in our hearts we hold all the true answers.<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: blue;">NEXT MEETUP</span></b><br />
The core team is organizing the next meetup and we have in mind Elizabeth's challenge... What can we make of this coming together?<br />
