We would like to thank Lune Valley Dog Training Club in Lancashire for their recent donation to Kenya Aid Foundation in memory of their friend. The donation will be used to purchase educational supplies during the charities’ next visit to Kenya in April; supplies which are very much lacking and which will be greatly appreciated by teachers and students alike. Thank you!

KAF in Kenya Oct.2009

A team from the Kenya Aid Foundation has recently returned from Kenya after visiting a number of educational projects in Nairobi and Kibugat.

The team visited Barnardos orphanage and several schools in Nairobi, including Fort Smith Educational Centre. A further trip was made to visit Kibugat Community Projects. Several projects submitted proposals for support from the Kenya Aid Foundation, and we look forward to providing assistance where we can.

The team also received a ’sotet’ as a gift while in Kibugat. This traditional milk guord / calablash is central to the life of the Kipsigis and Kalenjin tribes as a milk storage facility and an extension to their love of cattle rearing for milk. We are told that the ’sotet’ is given to people to bless the productivity of their work.
