BUPA Great Manchester Run 2012 · 20 May 2012 ·

We have two schools in Kenya, both in remote locations in Masai territory. Our primary school is located in Ol Moti, near the Tanzanian border. Approaching 400 children attend this school. Our secondary school is in Lenkisem near Amboseli National Park.

Story

Any guesses what that photo is of...?

...I'll give you a hint...200 children used this building every day...

...any guesses...?

The toilet right..?

...and a pretty rotten one at that...?

...Wrong - it is the school kitchen! It prepared 200 lunches every day.

It is sites like this that are the reason Schools for Kenya exists. With only a small amount of money, Schools for Kenya is able to build proper classrooms, laboratories (even kitchens!) and supply children with the supplies they need (pencils, books, desks). Its not complicated, but it makes a huge difference.

The Charity prides itself on that 100% of every donation is used for the very purpose of fulfilling the projects to build schools in Kenya. The costs of running the charity are borne completely by its trustees - so your money goes where it is needed.

Please support these charitable aims – Schools for Kenya is making a real difference but like all charities, needs your help. So please dig deep and donate now. We can "make it happen".
