The boys and girls of Joshua Home were all smiles as they enjoyed a fun-filled day of activities on Saturday, May 20, when Keen360 continued its community outreach activities with the aim of creating opportunities for underprivileged children.
Keen360 is a technology organization that, since 2019, has been providing modern, innovative solutions to businesses in Guyana through its ‘Volunteer Heroes’.

The Joshua Home is a well-known charitable organization in Guyana. It caters to children who are homeless, abused, or neglected. The team from Keen360 Guyana provided entertainment and fun to the children at the Home. During the day, the boys and girls were treated to a variety of activities, including a bouncy castle, games, face painting, story reading, and much more. Keen360 Guyana went ‘above and beyond’ to ensure that the children had a memorable and enjoyable time.
“By providing such an experience, Keen360 Guyana’s aim is to create a positive impact on the lives of these children,” coordinator of the company’s social programmes, Christine Bacchus, has said.
This initiative, she added, helps to address the issue of the lack of opportunities for underprivileged children, and forms part of Keen360’s corporate social responsibility (CSR) model.
By reaching out to orphanages and providing the children with the opportunity to have fun and engage in activities that they would not otherwise have access to, organizations like Keen360 Guyana can help to create a positive change in the lives of individuals who may have few positive experiences otherwise.
Moreover, the Joshua Home has a significant responsibility to provide a safe and supportive environment for vulnerable children in Guyana. The provision of a recreational event like the one organized by Keen360 Guyana could help to foster a more nurturing atmosphere at the Home. It could provide an important source of positive reinforcement for the children residing there, and this can then contribute to an improved sense of self-esteem, and consequently facilitate their development and growth.
The event organized by Keen360 Guyana for the children at the Joshua Home is a significant step in the right direction for community outreach programmes in Guyana. It provided a positive experience for the children, and demonstrated the power of outreach initiatives in creating a positive impact. It is hoped that other organizations would follow Keen360 Guyana’s example by providing similar experiences to underprivileged children throughout the country in the years to come.
The company would also like to extend gratitude to its team of ‘Volunteer Heroes’, who took the time to share their time with the children on Saturday.
