ANGEL KINDERGARTEN

The vision of Angel Kindergarten is to uplift young children out of hopeless poverty,  to feed the bodies and minds of the youngest and most vulnerable children and to give them hope and a brighter future.

Early years education for 2 to 9 year olds has been provided at Angel Kindergarten, which provides daily sanctuary, education and food for the most vulnerable children from Kibera, including integration of children with hearing impairment and other additional special needs.


The kindergarten is a clean, bright learning space which provides a stimulating learning experience with well qualified, sensitive and experienced Kenyan teachers. We want every child in our Kindergarten to develop emotionally, physically, spiritually and academically. 

From Grade 2 the children transfer to a partner school called Langata Barracks School, which is partially funded by the Government. Children are sponsored until the end of their secondary education and follow the Kenyan Competency Based curriculum.

Our hope is that the disadvantaged background of all our children is compensated by an excellent education.

ROSELYN'S STORY
WhatsApp Image 2023-02-13 at 12.41.37.jpeg

Roselyn was born to a teenage mother and now lives with her grandmother and mother.

 

She joined our first kindergarten cohort in 2014 and was one of the first children to be sponsored at the age of four years. Now 13 years old, she has benefited from continuous quality education provided by The Lunchbowl Network.

 

Despite childhood illness, she is now a straight A student and will likely be admitted to a top national school with a high probability of a university place. This will change her life.

HOW WE'RE HELPING BRYTON

Bryton lives in Kibera with his mother, father and one sibling. He was diagnosed as profoundly deaf when he was 5 years old after previously being misdiagnosed by a doctor as having an allergy.

Up until March 2019, he had no school provision as nowhere could meet his special educational needs. This meant he had no way of communicating with anyone.

Bryton attended our unit for the deaf and received a strong communication foundation. He has learnt Kenyan sign language, allowing him to communicate for the first time with his friends and teachers. Thanks to donations we were able to provide him with hearing aids. Bryton now attends a school for older deaf children and will eventually be able to attend a boarding school for the deaf.

Bryton also has a sponsor which allows us to plan for his long term wellbeing at school,  providing extra support to him in class and sign language classes for his family!
