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 weekly Saturday Dinner Programme for 350 orphaned and vulnerable children and provide creative learning for nearly 400 children in two kindergartens and a primary school. 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 extreme vulnerability and high need. They rely upon the nutrition that is provided daily by The Lunchbowl Network.
Every year The Lunchbowl Network provides over 90,000 dinners which means that every month 7, 640 dinners are provided to the most disadvantaged children from Kibera.

We are all volunteers in the UK and the only salaried workers are our teachers and support workers in Nairobi, so every penny donated and raised goes directly to where it is needed.
