STUDENT SPONSORSHIP PROGRAM
The community of Kangemi, Nairobi, Kenya has been directly affected by HIV/AIDS and, more recently, the COVID-19 pandemic. As a result, many children are homeless, orphaned, or have only one parent. The school relies on financial support to include the most needy children.
In 2002, Ray Adams OAM, a member of the Rotary Club of Emerald and District, began a student sponsorship program. From these humble beginnings, the program now sponsors over 120 children each year. In 2013, Ray's son Greg took over as Sponsorship Program Administrator.
Just AUD $295 per student per year enables the school to provide a quality education from Prep to Year 8, along with food and uniforms.
The program is a RAWCS (Rotary Australia World Community Service) project — Project Number 1, 2003–04. Donations are tax deductible.
Every sponsorship changes a child's future. For just $295 a year, you can give a child in Kangemi the gift of school, food, and hope.
