‘Bring your children to me’

Multinationals are just discovering the power of youth in marketing their brands. One woman learnt that a decade ago, and the benefits are as many as her works of charity, writes MARTIN MWANGI

Thirty minutes with her is like reading a best selling motivational book. She possesses the wisdom of the sages and could easily find a place among the thinkers of yore. But hers is wisdom for the little children. To paraphrase Kierkegaard, the German philosopher, she speaks to the young because they have hope for tomorrow. And were I to borrow from the Holy Book too, I would urge parents to "let the children come" to her.
