Based charity in Stoke Mandeville which focuses on transforming young Kenyan lives. The Charity was founded in 1995.
We believe in the transformational power of education. Our objective is to help Kenyan children from some of the poorest backgrounds, to fulfil their potential and release themselves from the cycle of poverty. At any one time, we are supporting around 700 children living in slum communities across Kenya, who may not otherwise receive an education, to go to school. In addition to providing financial support to enable children to access quality education, we work to reduce other barriers that may prevent those living below the poverty line from maximising their educational potential. This includes working with communities to provide nutritious meals, uniforms and shoes, learning equipment and feminine hygiene products.
We also support initiatives focused on the empowerment of the wider family unit and work with our partners on infrastructure development projects to support these, such as garment workshops and other spaces for small businesses to operate from. These have the potential to transform the local community and deliver increased self-sufficiency.
We are always grateful to individuals and groups who would like to fundraise for Karibuni Children to support our work in Kenya.
