We're an intrepid, self-funded group of 6 ladies and 3 men from Cisco who have joined forces determined to bring a glimmer of hope and some smiles to a poverty stricken community deep in western Kenya.

Will the orphanage ever be the same? We hope not, we're looking forward to providing new buildings, developing new skills for the community and learning ourselves along the way. Will we ever be the same, we doubt it very much, but we hope it it will enrich us and make us better people, colleagues friends and family members ;-)

Unlike a number of charities Hope and Kindness’s runnings costs are less than 1pence in the £ so you can be assured any donation make will go towards the capabilities we plan on delivering during our visit
