GN Kenya

The only meal they eat is the one offered at school, therefore they are not raised with adequate care nor proper education from their family.

We provide elementary education, talent education, Tae-kwon-do and boxing classes, and a school meal program to 160 poor children. We also hold special events such as a sports day and field trips.

We established Jirani daycare center at the outskirts of the Mukuru slum. We provide a high-quality meal service and health services such as baths and vaccination to twenty infants of poor single parents and unmarried mothers. We also provide basic education.

Most children are getting elementary education since it became compulsory in Kenya in 2003. However, the number of middle schools is only about one-fifth of elementary schools. Since students have to pay for tuition fees, most teenagers in the slum start working from an early age. Therefore, we began the Vocational Training Center to teach carpentry, cloth manufacturing, cosmetics, and sewing along with a special meal service event.
