Action at school > Introduction

Introduction

Hi, we are glad you visit this page. We need your help. We want to ask you to help us raising money for the children in Kenya. If you are a student, then please show this website to your teacher. Tell him/her that you want to support our foundation. Not only you, but your whole class or -even better- your school! 

The sooner you and your school raise money, the quicker we can help poor Kenyan schools and provide students with text books, pens, notepads... And also renovate and build new classrooms. 

Did you know that if the parents of these children are lucky enough to have a regular job, the parents earn only $ 2.50 US dollar per day? (2 EURO). Knowing this, you will understand that parents cannot buy expensive school books and school uniforms for their children. That is why one million children in Kenya do not attend school at all. They have to work: in the fields, in factories, in house holding or... more worse: as prostitute!
This is unacceptable. All children have the right on education, a good living! Read also the chapter about Children's Rights (see website of the Foundation).

On behalf of the students of Ukunda (Kenya) we want to thank you for your support!

Below some photos of Kenyan children.

 


If you have your own cattle,
than you have at least milk
 


Not all children go to school,
like these poor kids

cow-dung and cardboard
 


If a school does not have enough classrooms, then the students follow lessons outside.
They have to sit on the ground and mostly there is no blackboard.


If you go to school, then you must wear a school uniform!
 


These students do not have school desks in their class rooms.

they hope to get money from tourists
