Kibra Rising and the Power of August Support

By Nowell | Programs Assistant

Dear Friends,

Our August Holiday Program is in full swing. From August 2nd to 24th, we're running our intensive 3-week holiday program, serving 800+ meals daily (both breakfast and lunch) to 639 children. While schools are closed and many families struggle to provide regular meals, your support is ensuring that every child who walks through our doors receives: hot breakfast to start their day with energy and focus and nutritious lunch to sustain them through afternoon activities.

This August, our well-fed children are preparing for something incredible; KIBRA RISING, a dance production featuring 45 young talented dancers and learning through educational games, creative arts and forming friendships in a safe, nurturing environment.Every meal you provide creates space for these moments of joy and growth.

We're excited to invite you to witness the highlight of our August holiday program on August 24th at the Kenya National Theatre, featuring them. This performance is proof of what proper nutrition and consistent support can achieve.

Ways to Join Us:

  • Attend in Person: Join us at Kenya National Theatre on 24th August, to see our children shine
  • Sponsor a Ticket: Can't attend? Sponsor tickets for parents to watch their children perform at $10 each
  • Follow Online: Watch highlights on our social media channels

The children performing on that stage are the same ones who arrive hungry each morning. Your support through our feeding program has given them the energy, confidence, and opportunity to reach this incredible milestone.

While we celebrate this achievement, the need continues year-round. When schools reopen, we remain committed to enhancing their nutritional needs through your support, which includes;

  • Weekend meals when schools are closed.
  • Holiday feeding programs during school breaks.
  • After-school nutrition to support continued learning activities.
