To Kenya with Love is a registered charity sponsoring children in Kenya, Africa providing a child with education, accommodation and healthcare. TKWL was established in 1991 by the late Simon Newberry. TKWL has a board of trustees in the UK and in Kenya. We do this by providing an education for each child, which otherwise they would not be able to afford. Thus giving them a good chance of gaining employment and breaking the cycle of poverty and dependence.
Many of these children have lost one or both parents to AIDS and would otherwise be forced to live with relatives or on the streets. Where necessary we also provide food, accommodation and emergency health care for these needy children. Our sponsors also support children in their homes by providing them with the essentials needed for their education or vocational training. Many of our children are living with uncles, aunts and grandparents because their own parents are dead.
Sponsorship funds for these children provide for school uniforms, shoes, text books, medical and dental care and school fees or tuition fees. We are also working with local projects that share our aims such as this orphanage and school in the rural area of Kajulu just outside Kisumu.
TKWL has for many years had its own nursery school in the slum area of Manyatta. In 2007 we purchased a piece of land in Manyatta and have built temporary classrooms for the Simon Newberry Nursery and Primary schools. Our nursery children have moved onto the new site and primary class one commenced in January 2008. The first permanent classroom for primary class 2 opened in January 2009. As well as providing excellent academic education we also provide every child with a nutritious lunch - for many of them this is their only meal of the day.
