On March 1st, I am running for Eusebia Hope, a Kenyan Charity that needs your help. We are raising funds for a new dormitory to house, feed and educate abandoned children.
Eusebia Karega lived in Igoji, a village in Kenya. In 2004, she decided to help the growing number of children in her rural village who had been abandoned or orphaned. Every day, after her long shift as a midwife, Eusebia went home to cook for the children waiting at her door. Eusebia died in 2013, but her work continues.
It is led in Kenya by her mother, Teresa, and in the UK by her daughter, Christine (who lives in my village). The Eusebia Hope Foundation (EHF) is the UK charity supporting this provision of unconditional help for the children. It is run by a group of people, who share Eusebia’s belief in the African proverb: ‘It takes a whole village to raise a child’.
The Eusebia Hope Centre houses approximately 50 orphaned or abandoned children, getting them off the streets, feeding and educating them and ensuring they have a future. The boys urgently need a new dormitory, as their adapted tin building is at the end of its life and very cold, so fundraising is more important than ever.
If you are able to support these brave souls, please dig deep and help us raise the funds to build a safe and comfortable sleeping space.
If anyone else would like to run for the charity, please email eusebiahope@gmail.com!
So every penny goes to the children who need it, you might want to custom set the justgiving donation fee rather than letting it default. Email the charity directly on eusebiahope@gmail.com if you plan a larger donation and want to ensure it's cost effective.
