St. Lawrence University Alumni Group visits CoKF

There is a Swahili proverb that goes “Mgeni Karibu, mwenyeji apone”, this loosely translates to: when a visitor is welcomed, the host heals. This was the scenario at the CoKF offices last weekend. We received St Lawrence University Alumni led by Prof. Celia Nyamweru and Kathleen Colson. We have a special bond with this university since our founder Ken Okoth earned his undergraduate degree from St. Lawrence in 2001. Our quest to improve the education standards in Kibera got a major boost when this group donated learning supplies to our library -- over 70 books, calculators, study cards and drawing pencils. Other donations included gifts of children's clothing and sports equipment. We believe that these gifts will permanently and positively impact on our sponsored children and are sincerely grateful to the St Lawrence University Alumni team. Asante sana and best wishes for the rest of your visit in Kenya.

More books for our children!

Good to be here...

best foot forward in the Hokey Pokey.....
