An Overdue 2015 Update!

The LEI Team wrapped up 2014 with success and happiness in all of our projects . The former street children we had sent to school remained in class, even exceeding our expectations in their performance despite being out of school for so long. The classroom we helped fund for the Living Positive Kenya Daycare Center was finished and turned out so much better than we ever could have imagined. The school in Longonot continued to thrive with a graduating class of nearly 30 children now attending public school.

It's only February, yet already our projects have all experienced significant improvements this year! 

Thanks to so many of our generous supporters the daily lunch program has resumed at the Longonot Education Center, a much needed and long awaited return. The children now receive a hefty and hearty meal each day after their morning classes. Lunch will certainly make recess and their afternoon lessons a lot more fun.

We also recently celebrated our 4th birthday with all of the children and teachers at the school - what better way to celebrate than with the school that first sparked our initiative!

The new classroom at the LPK Daycare Center is loved by all of the students and their teachers. The new class allows for a much larger learning and teaching space, and the three new toilets have improved the sanitation conditions tremendously.

We want to thank everyone who donated towards this project last year, and we are so happy to announce to everyone its completion and success.

We continue to work with LPK in an effort to identify children in especially vulnerable situations that may require a bit of extra help in both the home and school.

These days you won’t find many street boys wandering the streets of Ngong, as most have them have graduated from our program at the Ahadi Education Center and are now back in school (and performing better than we ever could have hoped).

We are still hard at work helping the few boys that remain in the streets, but we are determined they have what it takes to join the boys currently in school. 

Thank you so much to everyone who continues to follow and support our effort to bring education to as many children here in Kenya as possible. We promise some new and exciting updates soon!
