Kiberia Community Kisumu Dogo Project

Kisumu Dogo nursery and primary school, Nairobi Kenya

The school sits in the heart of Kibera, a high density suburb and slum of Nairobi, where school offers a sanctuary from much of life's troubles. The facility provides education programs, food support and a church mission with four pre-school classes and eight grades of primary students. Due to an urgent need, the next focus is hospital-support and home-based medical care-giving. The Kenyan organization partner, Revival for World Crusade, was founded in 1988 and is run by a board comprised of a chairman, vice chairman, secretary, treasure and vice treasurer, with thirty-seven volunteers and staff.

Currently the school needs more classrooms as the Kisumu Dogo Primary is now filled to capacity. Also they need help with the new home care program as the population infected with HIV is extremely high in Kibera and the number of slum children living with HIV and AIDS has skyrocketed. The school hopes to take care of the education, health care and nutrition needs of the poor children in Kibera as an ongoing project.

Education is an important key to a better life and self-sustenance. Providing the opportunity for Kibera children to be busy at school and improving their situation also aims to reduce early parenthood, child abuse and exploitation of children. Education will also benefit the society as a whole.

To help finance the school, the parents of the children in this school make beautiful bone jewelery, serving spoons, spreaders and forks which positively AFRICA sells on their behalf

Please support this project with a donation (click here) or by purchasing the jewelery (click here)
