School fees for all of the orphans to attend public school

Edna is very smart with all A's and was #1 in her class.  She was the only student in 10 years at that village high school to qualify for university!  She graduated high school but needs to pay a fee to get her certificate.  Will you help her?

(monthly cost)

These are used every day in cooking local Kenyan meals.  Ugali, a maize flour porridge, is a daily staple that is eaten with kale, tomatoes and onions from the farm.  (monthly cost)

The cow and hens provide milk and eggs for the children, which is very nutritious.   4 large sacks of mash.  (monthly cost)

(annual cost)

Maize (corn) is the #1 staple food in Kenya.  They have ugali with most meals, which is like grits but firmer.  It's tasty when eaten with kale, tomatoes and onions from their farm!  This buys 50 huge bags of dried corn kernels at a big discounted "pre harvest" rate.  Plus the nice farmer throws in 10 bags of rotten corn to feed the hens for a year For free! It's a great deal we can't afford to miss each year. 

(56 kids @$10 per pair).  Children have only one pair and they get worn hard every day.

(annual estimate)

Sometimes a child has an accident or infection that needs hospital care.  This varies, but in the past few years we had a bad cut with loss of toe in a farming accident, a rare infection that almost led to amputation, but we took him to hospital and saved him, swollen neck for Jacky, and Fred was hit by a car which almost killed him, but the hospital saved his life.  (annual estimate)

Malaria is very common in Africa.  Mosquito nets protect the children while they sleep.  This would buy 38 nets, which is the current need.

Buy some goats!

Needed to transport multiple people and supplies. (monthly)

Maintenance, repairs, and tires for the truck and motorcycle.  (annual cost)

There is a steep, curved driveway entrance that gets very muddy when it rains, so cars cannot drive up.  They have to leave their car on the main road and have someone sleep in the car overnight, so it doesn't get stolen.  Fixing the road by adding stones and drainage will give them proper access.

We are completing the project to create a doctor office for Newton, so he can generate income for the orphanage and provide free medical care to the children.  This property also has 8 rooms to be rented out for additional income.  

All we need is iron sheets, cement, windows, painting and wiring and the project will be completed.  

PLEASE HELP US PUSH THIS OVER THE GOAL LINE!
