Building Shelter 2008 PDF Print E-mail

Our greatest need now is the building of shelter for the children. As time goes on, the number of needy children is escalating and due to this, some of the children are sharing beds. The dormitories will cost an estimated Ksh 23, 801,892 ($ 317,359), please not that the cost is not stagnant because it fluctuates according to the current economic market.

The children are sleeping in congested quarters but we encourage ourselves, that it is better than sleeping on the cold hard cement on the streets. On April 2007, we held a walk-a-thon to raise awareness about this issue and we are still calling on you to please come and make a difference in a needy child’s life.
