Havilla was started in 2008 in the biggest slums in Africa located in Kenya. There is a lot of poverty in the slums. Joblessness makes people get involved in prostitution, and sale of drugs .This has in the resent years resulted to high spread of HIV aids and it has become a disaster.
Some children are total orphaned and cannot continue going to school. There are so many children around the slums who don’t get 3 meals a day and survive with one meal. There is no enough support to the children to get education.The number continues to increase every day.
In Kenya public schools are fewer than children You will find a class of 80 children being handled by one teacher So at the end of the day the quality of education is low.
Its due to this reason that a group of 3 volunteers committed to help few children get into school. Havilla was started by few volunteers to care for the needy children.
It was started in 2008 and now it has 3 classes with 75 children .There is Baby class,Nursery,and Pre unit classes.
The school is a registered Charity.
Programs At Havilla.
EDUCATION PROGRAM
There are 4 classes for children from 3 – 7 years old. The lessons follow the Kenyan national curriculum and children obtain a certificate at the end of their studies. All fulltime teachers have undergone full training from approved teacher training institutions in Kenya: Additionally, the teachers receive training in dealing with HIV infected children.
FEEDING PROGRAM
In addition to breakfast, lunch and an afternoon snack during weekdays, the HCC offers a Saturday feeding program for children that are not part of the weekly educational program. This year we have increased the budget to offer a more balanced diet including fresh meat, vegetables and fruit. HCC staff receive training in the dietary needs of children. The HCC staff noticed that many children do not receive regular meals other than those offered by the feeding program.
HEALTHCARE PROGRAM
Children often do not receive healthcare and HCC assures that this is undertaken on a regular basis. It important to assure de-worming tablets for all children, HIV medicine for those who need it, regular check-ups and above all funds for specific medical assistance that parents could not otherwise afford.
It provides breakfast and lunch to all the children. Everything comes from well-wishers.Childrens come to the Centre in the morning at 8 am an d stay until 4 p.m when they go home .
