ERFA’s Growing Strong project at Edmund Rice Catholic Education Centre has been nurturing the growth of future farmers.

The project’s “4K Club” – an initiative of the Kenyan Government, designed to equip future generations of farmers with skills in agricultural management – has been teaching students to produce silage for the school’s dairy cows.

Growing Strong project leaders provide the student club members with hands-on agricultural practice and classroom teachings that cover each stage of the silage production cycle, from seed bed preparation and harvesting, all the way to fodder fermentation and storage.

Providing education for students and parents throughout the Embulbul community.
I am so happy and thankful for ERFA for teaching us how to plan, work and plant vanilla in the correct way.

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.
