Changing the world, one life at a time The aim of the project is to bring hope to the hopeless, love to the lonely, and peace to their hearts. The retreat in Kakamega has been given a local name of the “Koinonia Christian Retreat Centre”. Koinonia is a Greek word that means family, in a sense of wider community and love. We lovingly care for the rejected, abused and abandoned, such as street children and orphans. Our homes provide shelter, food, security, behavioural boundaries and individual attention for those in our care. The objective of the project is to help each child become a productive and valuable member of their society, helping them to achieve a brighter future through education, training and life skills application. “A little effort can make a huge impact” Thank you for being part of what we are doing.

Nia Children's Foundation (UK, 1135226) Browse events

Attending school is not a priority for most underprivileged children growing up in developing countries. Many parents cannot afford basic food supplies to feed their families, therefore children spend their days looking for food on the streets rather than attending school and developing an education. Many schools receive little help and so struggle to provide the children with food and basic educational materials. Nia Children’s Foundation works with local African suppliers to provide food supplies and educational materials to non-government run schools in Africa’s poorest areas. This ensures that children attend school and receive regular meals enabling them to become healthier and more focused in class. The word Nia means life’s purpose in Swahili, the language spoken in Kenya. In our eyes ensuring these children are healthy and receiving an education allows them to provide for themselves in the future... this is our life’s purpose. YOUR £5 CAN HELP FEED AND EDUCATE ONE CHILD FOR AN ENTIRE MONTH Over 97% of your donations go directly to paying for the food supplies. NO donations are used in wages or expenses. Our finances are extremely transparent and supporters can see exactly where every single penny of their donations are being spent.  Please visit our website for further information about our project.
