Story

We are so thankful for every gift given!  WOW! Since March 1st, We have almost hit our target of raising to cover our current bills of £20,000! The full two year treatment will cost around £40,000. Our next target is to raise another £10,000, taking our total to £30,000. Help us save a life!

Our previous update is available here: https://www.thekcp.org/blog/kevin’s-leukemia-treatment-update

Kevin is one of our boys who lives in our children's home in Kenya. He has recently become extremely unwell and has been undergoing extensive tests and doctors have found that he has a form of leukaemia. No ten year old should have to deal with a diagnosis like this one, but especially a child who has already had so much difficulty in his precious little life. 

We are fighting to give Kevin the treatment and care necessary and the best outcome possible! 

This is likely to have considerable costs, which may develop as the treatment course is decided in more detail, but currently looks like it will cost £40,000 at least to facilitate his treatment and care. Please share, or think about gathering with some friends to raise support for this campaign. Thanks for fighting with us for his breakthrough!

With love and thanks, 

Stu and Chlo Glassborow 

and the KCP Team

As a result of the sensitive nature of this case, and child protection legalities, we may not be able to share all information about the progress of his treatment and situation. We will keep you updated as best we can whilst protecting him and his privacy. Thank you so much for understanding.
