Family, Our community and the world has been beset by what we know as COVID-19 - a novel coronavirus and the various governmental responses. Life as we know it has been upended. On Mondays and Saturdays until June 6th, AYA Educational Insitute will continue to promote a multi-pronged response to facilitate our community succeeding during these tough times. We call it Ngolo (energy/power)!
