A bit about KOP...
The Kenyan Orphan Project (KOP) was set up by medical students from Nottingham University in 2001 as a response to the plight of the millions of people affected by HIV/AIDS and poverty in sub-Saharan Africa.
In the last 10 years KOP has been involved in establishing a hospital, a health clinic, two primary and one secondary schools, two community/feeding centres and a support and rehabilitation centre for street children all in the Nyanza province in western Kenya.
Each year groups of medical students from around 10 different universities go to work on the projects KOP supports. For more information please go to www.KOPafrica.org
