Edmund Rice Eldoret Empowerment Program has started the year full of energy, hosting its first camp last weekend to great success!

The camp attracted a huge turnout from children living in the informal settlement of Langas, indicative of how much children have missed the camps over the last year.
The camps provide a wellspring of respite for children with limited opportunities to participate in organised sport and youth groups. EREEP’s eager community of youth volunteers started the day with a life-skills session intended to cultivate skills of resilience and self-awareness and finished with sports activities and games.

1 in 3 children in Western Kenya cannot read a single word.

As we head towards the end of the financial year, your gift can help children learn, read and thrive. 

In rural western Kenya, classrooms are overcrowded, teachers are untrained and under-supported, and children are leaving school unable to read, leaving them disadvantaged for life. 

But, with your help, this can change. 

 

With improved teacher training, better literacy support and safer classrooms, children can gain the foundational skills they need to succeed at school and beyond. 

Your support this tax time will help train teachers, strengthen schools and help thousands of children learn to read with confidence.
