Our sponsorship program continues to grow, but so, too, does the list of children that need sponsors!

Our Head Start program in the Mathare Valley slum district of Nairobi has expanded by 50% as we have added a third class to the school, and we have created the Maji Mazuri Teenz group.

In the Mathare Valley, the Youth Group has opened its new office and is installing a cyber café.

The Children’s Center is now caring for 49 disadvantaged children; and we have added a third floor to the building.

Enrollment at our school in Kiserian has increased considerably – to over 110 children, and we are presently building a dormitory on top of the new kitchen/dining structure.

The farm at Kiserian has added more acres of irrigated cultivation.

The primary (elementary) school at Upper Matasia now has over 90 children, and the secondary (high) school, which has expanded to include Grade 11, has 80!

There has been a constant stream of international volunteers working with the Maji Mazuri team.

There have been mission visits from two Atlanta area churches – Mount Pisgah United Methodist and St. Luke’s Presbyterian – and from Canada, Norway and the Netherlands.

An Atlanta firm has donated $5,000 towards completing the kitchen dining room complex at the Kiserian elementary school.

A group from one of our sponsor churches in Atlanta visited Kenya in October to see the projects for themselves.

Supporters in Alberta Canada have raised over $6,750 Canadian at a church tea and bake and craft sale.

The Youth Group has obtained a safe space for an office and internet café.

And a Dutch charity has made a substantial donation to the Youth Group’s Education Fund.

Advocate

Not all help comes in the form of donations or volunteering. People can help by simply spreading the word on the good work done by the many individuals helping those in need. Advocate on behalf of Maji Mazuri and the children of Kenya. Try to educate those who do not even realize the magnitude of the problems the people of Kenya face.
