The Cullis Charitable Trust
(UK, 266375) Browse events
YTD Raised: £0.00Amongst its activities, The Cullis Charitable Trust acts as an umbrella charity for one-off charitable projects of which support of Kitengela Academy in Kenya is currently one such. The immediate aim is to raise £10,000 to rescue an excellent Kenyan school from facing administration and the consequential abandonment of orphans. Climbing Mt. Kenya to support Kitengela Academy, Kenya In August, 2010, six of us from the UK and 4 Kenyan teachers will be come together as a group to undertake the arduous task of climbing Mount Kenya in order to raise funds for Kitengela Academy, Kitengela, Nairobi. We aim to raise £10,000 of sponsorship in order to rescue an excellent Kenyan school from facing administration and the abandonment of the orphans that they currently provide free education to, clearing the bank loans that they have on existing buildings and the associated annual interest. It is a private fee paying school, but they currently accommodate 20 pupils free of charge, as they are orphans and have no relatives to take care of their education. Facebook Group - http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=239011618310 Mt. Kenya Mt Kenya stands at 5,199m/17,057ft. It is a stratovolcano with very steep, eroded slopes. The lower levels are covered with forest, then the landscape changes to a desert-like environment whilst there are currently 11 small glaciers towards the peak. It will take approximately seven days to both ascend and descend the mountain and the combination of uneven slopes, dramatically changing landscapes and climates and high altitude (hopefully without the associated altitude sickness) will present significant challenge on what will be the first major hiking/climbing experiences for the majority of the group. Kitengela Academy Kitengela Academy is an independent school in Kenya, where, for a small fee, pupils from the ages to 4 to 14 are able to access an excellent Kenyan education. Sarah developed links with this school in 2005 as an educational partnership with Edward Wilson School, in Paddington. Sarah and several former colleagues have taught in Kitengela Academy and maintained personal relationships with the school and the teachers ever since. The school has excellent values and aims to prepare pupils for the Global 21st Century whilst continuing to highlight the importance of local values and customs. The school is owned and managed by Mrs Pamela Juma who currently provides free education, food and board for 20 local, orphaned children. It costs approximately £600 per year to provide each child with board, food, educational fees, exam costs, books, pencils and other school requirements. Whilst it is more expensive to send a child to an independent school than to a government school, the benefits to the child are immense. Whilst in Kenya, Sarah has also visited many government schools, with classes of over 100 pupils. Currently, it is the independent sector that offers children, especially orphaned children, the greatest future prospects of a University education, a job/profession and economic stability. Charity Information Sarah has recently become a Director on the governing board of Kitengela Academy and we intend to register this school as a UK charity. Through our climbing endeavours, we aim to clear the debts of the school to ensure that it can be self-sufficient whilst supporting orphaned children. We also intend to provide ongoing support in terms of expertise and additional resources and hope to find donors to sponsor individual children. The Cullis Charitable Trust (registered charity no 266375) enables us to collect donations in a tax efficient way. All monies raised will go directly to the school and we will be closely involved in directing how the money is used. The cost of flights, accommodation, etc, will be paid individually by each climber. Other direct ways to donate: Your support can save a school and directly change the lives of hundreds of children in Africa, giving them the opportunity to educate themselves and achieve great things for their community. Thank you for making this possible. Alex, Sarah, David, Karen, Adam & Josie
