Help A Child Get Back to School

This report will cover the progress made for the months of May, June and July. 13 students who completed high school are currently being supported to access computer literacy and other related packages through The digital literacy initiatiative. The aim for this initiative is to provide access to digital literacy and training for the youth in informal settlements. On 5th August these students will be graduating thanks to your support.

In June, The Ngao Foundation started another initiative to rehabilitate and empower young boys and girls who have been rehabilitated from the streets and those recovering from all forms of drugs and alcoholism and those who dropped out of school so that we provide a second change for them through training in hands-on skills such as electrical and electronics courses, hair dressing,  plus all vocational opportunities. Already we have 17 youths enrolled in different units courses.

We also hosted a football tournament bring children from different parts of Nairob mainly Kibra and Kangemi. The aim of this tournament was to create a harmonious environment between these children and fostering inclusivity. These children were also taught on dangers of engaging into crime, substance  and drug abuse, they were also given carreer guidance talks.

CHALLENGES.

• We are seeking help in acquiring the tools, boots and their instructional fees for those students doing electricals and electronic courses.
• Due to insufficient funds we are struggling to provide education to those vulnerable children who are in dire need of it hence why we are reminding you the donors that it only costs 255 dollars to sponsor a child through primary school, 450 dollars through high school and 400 dollars through vocational training for a full year. These funds cater for food, uniform, stationery and school fees.
