Walindwa Charitable Organization hasn't added a story.
We are Walindwa ("to nurture" in Swahili) - a non-profit formed to help support the Elma Barnett Children's Centre and Elma High School in the rural Rift Valley of Kenya. Home to 50 children who have lost parents to disease, violence, and addiction, the Centre provides hope for the hopeless.
Children ranging in age from preschool through high school live onsite and are raised in an environment of love where they are taught their inherent value as children of God, in addition to receiving food, shelter, clothing, medical care, and Christian education on the 22 acre property. Personal responsibility and life skills are woven into the everyday lives of the children, and they are guided to acheive their highest potential through post high school training, with the goal of becoming Christian leaders and productive citizens. Onsite crops and poultry farming provide much of the food consumed at the home.
BUT more kids, as we grow, means more water is needed! The existing well provides some of the water needed but utilizing rainwater in the dormitories and kitchen needs to be maximized.
YOU can help by funding the construction of raingutters to be attached to the high school building and water collection tanks - a cost-effective and ecologically sound means of storing rainwater for use on the campus.
Thank you!
