We raise funds for child poverty in Kenya to remove extreme poverty from the planet

Story

Poverty is not a lack of money but a lack of options. Furaha Community Foundation (FCF) is providing quality education for hundreds of children – the option needed to escape poverty.

I am fundraising for When I Grow Up (UK), who specifically raise money and support for this one incredible school in Nairobi.

About the charity

When I Grow Up UK

Verified by JustGiving

RCN SC047647
When I Grow Up UK was set up to help in empowering children between the ages of 4 and 18 living in extreme poverty by forming partnerships with indigenous leaders around the globe who are seeking to value and provide for children through holistic community development. This charity was to raise awareness in the United Kingdom of the living conditions of children living in poverty and to raise funds for the relief of poverty by visiting specific areas in which children live in poverty and gaining invitations to speak to people at events in the United Kingdom and present them with personal accounts and photographic evidence of the conditions there and to expend said funds for the relief of said poverty . It works in support of the work of the Charitable Organisation: When I Grow Up – Global, registered in the United States of America, in providing funding and leadership to partners working in impoverished communities in countries throughout the world to bring education and feeding programmes, to children without hope of lifting themselves out of poverty by their own efforts and means and providing business advice and support to adults in those communities to enable them to escape from the cycle of poverty. We aim to develop the work of When I Grow Up (UK) so that it is in a position to provide relief from poverty and provide education and health care in other impoverished areas of the world.
