How You Can Help

 

As a result of earlier promotional activities, funding donations from individuals & local schools in UK have kindly contributed towards the purchase & distribution of Community Health-Care books to dispensing nurses in Mukogodo, Laikipia during Dec 2005 & 2006, as well as supporting KEEP’s Environmental Education & Sponsor a Tree programmes in the Kakamega rain forest. Seed-funding has also been provided to assist the ‘Shimwelo’ Kakamega Forest Cooking Basket Initiative operated by KEEP.

 

Donations of books have also been made by Shetland schools with transport assistance to Kenya kindly being provided by the charity

Books Abroad.

 

Many thanks to all those concerned.

 

A special thanks is also due to Ilamaiyo Youth Group for assisting with the delivery of the Community Health Care books to their final destinations in Laikipia.
