Dear Esteemed Friends & partners,
We thank you for donating to Compassion CBO "Help Build a Free Primary School in Nairobi Slums". https://www.globalgiving.org/projects/help-construct-container-school-in-githogoro-slum/
Your Donation has helped us raise $20,552 out of $96,982 goal.
We are approaching the last quarter of year 2022. Despite the high cost of living all over the world and here in Kenya we have not lost hope of fundraising for this noble cause of helping young boys and girls from less fortunate families here in Nairobi slums access education. We thank you for your constant donations and we appeal to you despite the hard economic times you walk with us until we realize our dream of raising the remaining amount in last quarter of 2022.
The prices of standard containers 20 foot have skyrocketed so much but we thank you for your Support. Food prices are also very high and we are mostly affected because we provide breakfast and lunch every day to keep the children in school. We also provide stationeries and all costs for every child from your support. Without your support we can’t move an inch.
- From your Support we feed 200 + children everyday with breakfast and lunch.
-We have bought 6 containers for classrooms
-Bought learning materials for 200+ Children
-Provided tuition fees for the children and other cost for proper learning.
- Bought 300 text books and 100 lockable tables for the school. Cheers
Thank You So Much
Buying 1 container and converting it to classroom it cost us now USD3994 because the prices now have gone up due to inflation and lack of containers in the market.
Thank so much for donating to this noble project.
Help Build a Free Primary School in Nairobi Slums
We are building a high standard modern Container primary school suitable for an informal settlement (slum) in Githogoro, Nairobi, Kenya - to provide high quality education for needy families living below $365 per year. Our aim is to give free access to education for children who otherwise have no education, so they can break out of the vicious cycle of extreme poverty. Since 2005 we have given access to education for over 1,000 children from the slums and we want to increase the number to 3,000 Children by 2030. Helping share with friends is also a great contribution.
