CLC House is part of a Girls Empowerment program involving the Edmund Rice Vocation Centre for community education which is based at the school.
The eight girls in the hostel are from difficult backgrounds including two who are orphans, one whose family are refugees from the DRC and one from a rural area who is both a young wife and mother.
Grace, the matron will play an important role in the life of the girls as both “house parent” and mentor. Her background includes experience in counselling which is important in this crucial role. Grace is also a graduate of the school (2008)”.
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.
