Donate your old school shoes

We operate on a purely voluntary staffing basis, we have no office costs and we ensure our other overheads remain very small hence we give an extraordinary 94% of all financial donations direct to our projects in Kibera. The other 6% is used to raised the next £1. ​

The Lunchbowl Network was set up in 2006 in response to the plight of the orphaned and vulnerable children living in Kibera, Nairobi. Since then we have provided funding for a dinner programme for 450 - 480 orphaned and vulnerable children. These children endure the harsh reality of life in Kibera including lack of access to clean water, very poor sanitation compounded by an inadequate education that causes them to be severely disadvantaged. The children in the programme have been selected because of their vulnerability and high need and rely upon the nutrition that is provided daily by The Lunchbowl Network.

​In January 2015 our first International Angel Kindergarten opened to educate and feed 55 Lunchbowl children.In Jan 2016 our second Angel Kindergarten opened to educate and feed a further 150 orphaned and vulnerable children aged 3-8.Our vision in the Angel Kindergarten's is to provide an excellent foundational learning experience, to feed minds as well as tummies and for each child to develop emotionally, physically, spiritually and academically ensuring their disadvantaged background is compensated by a solid foundation in their early and formative years, enabling them to compete within the Kenyan system for good Primary and Secondary schools and thereby impact their future lives.Both our Kindergarten's are an oasis of safety,fun and compassion for every one of our Lunchbowl children. 

​The Lunchbowl Network also provides a sponsorship programme for our Kindergarten children.You can bring lasting hope and change by giving a young child a quality education in their early formative years, for our Kindergarten children this education will be the key to success in their life Download an information pack here
