Overview
The Kitengela Orphanage, just outside , had asked me to help raise ~£25,000 for the construction of classrooms for the children. With all your genoristiy, we will, God willing, exceed that target, due to the pledges outstanding from our last two funds!
The extra funds raised will go towards building other much needed facilities, such as an infirmiary, workshops and similar capital expenditure. Given the orphanage's excellent history in providing street children with homes, love and a future, we can rest assured that every pound donated will make a big difference to the kids' lives. To that end I ask that you all fulfill your pledges, and thank you for your generous support! I shall update the site as cheques begin coming in!

"Our Orphans..." Event: Thank you
With the hard work of a dozen strong team, the prayers and well wishes of hundreds, and the support and donation of our 100+ guests, we had a very beautiful evening at the Muslim Cultural Heritage Centre. We thank all those who participated on the evening, and ask that all pledges be fulfilled before the 7th of April, as we hope to transfer the funds to Kitengela at that stage to start the building works.
