As you receive this letter, our team sends you greetings from Kenya, where we are sharing with our partner schools the joy we experienced at KCEF’s 20th Anniversary celebration on October 1st. We structured the evening into three parts: The Beginning, The Present, and the Future and celebrated wit...

The power of reading. The hope in a child’s eyes. The perseverance of teachers teaching in dire situations. The deep trust developed across cultures between partners. The dreams of the future. There was so much in today’s visits.

Grateful for time with Madame Florence and St. Catherine’s Elite School near Thika today. Students are completing their school year and 6th and 9th graders are preparing for national exams. We have come alongside this school with meals for those who cannot afford, educational materials, computers and digital literacy, scholarships for top students through Education For All Children, and weekly Biblically based character formation through the Tanari Trust. As the students go on holiday, we provide a coding camp so they can be safe and learn new skills. Grateful for this partnership.

Visits to Gospel Victory Academy, Believer’s Kwa Watoto and Mawewa schools filled our hearts today. Two of our unsung heroes are Fred Muingi and Michael Maingi- both educational leaders in Kenya- who poured into the teachers of our partner schools. It’s not just professional development. They truly care for each teacher and school director and the impact is being seen in teacher retention and improved learning for schools founded by community leaders serving among the poorest of the poor. It takes a village and we are grateful they are part of ours.

We believe in the power of partnership. We don’t own schools. We partner with schools founded and led by Kenyans in their communities. And we believe that if there is another organization already doing good in an area that could benefit our partner schools, we form a partnership.

We are so grateful to partner with Education For All Children. They run an incredible scholarship and mentorship organization. For children coming from the slums, the thought of attending a good secondary school or even the dream of a university education feels out of reach. EFAC selects students who score in the top 10% on the national exam. Because of our partnership, students from our partner schools, have the opportunity to apply for that scholarship. And our donors help make sure that scholarship gets funded.

But it’s more than just a scholarship, it’s someone walking alongside these students through letter writing, mentorship, training and career connections, as they transition to a world very different from the world in which they grew up.

Today we met with four students- Chantal, Silvah, Benard and Maxwell. As a primary student, Chantal used a computer for the first time because of the computer and training KCEF provided to her school in Kiandutu. Now she is studying to be a computer scientist. And whenever she is on holiday, she gives back by volunteering at the very meals program at which we served yesterday.  if you are interested in supporting more students like Chantal for only $50/month, please donate here. https://secure.qgiv.com/for/hso3caya/

We had such an incredible 20th Anniversary Celebration. Here is just a glimpse of an evening that not only honored the founders and our school partners, but catalyzed new friends and future vision. We are grateful. And thank you to BankGloucester and Gordon College for their sponsorship, Daniel and Esther Chikhwaza for their music, and for friends like our partner Education For All Children and Kupenda for the children and Nicholas Karinge and Esther who are also working in Kenya and joined us in celebration. It takes a village!

UPDATE: Within one hour of posting this, a generous friend covered the expenses for all four families. We are so grateful.

******+When one suffers we all suffer. Four families of students at our partner Blessed Children’s Centre in the Kibera slum all lost their homes yesterday due to fires because of the faulty wiring. Thankfully no one was killed, but these families lost the very little possessions they have. We are seeking to raise $800 to help these four families reset. Will you join us?  https://secure.qgiv.com/for/hso3caya/

It is such a gift to have our Kenya director, Jane Mwikali, here with us in the United States this week to meet our partners here, celebrate the 20th anniversary of KCEF and share the good work God is doing in Kenya.
