Introducing EKCF
It's been a momentous week for our new venture, the opening of Elspeth Kumi Community Foundation Centre (EKCF)in Kumi town. This has been a dream of the team in Kumi for some time and with the help of generous support from our donors we have finally been able to make this happen. The team in Kumi, lead by Harriet and Rose, wanted to recognise the founder of the charity, Elspeth Robinson, and the love she has for the area by naming the centre after her.
The modest one room facility, although currently only rented, will make a big impact on families who are affected by disability in the surrounding area. Primarily aimed at supporting children and carers it will provide a contact point where the services funded by Kumi Community Foundation can be accessed.
From physiotherapy services and access to mobility aids, to nutrition advice and supporting families and individuals through vocational training amongst other things, this small centre will have a big impact.
It provides a welcoming, friendly base in Kumi where families can get help and advice from our fabulous team.
EKCF opened it's doors a week ago and greeted 15 new clients on its first day, giving hope and practical help to families who otherwise would find it extremely difficult to access this kind of care.
It's another step forward in which this great little charity is helping others to help themselves.
