Hi, thank you so much for your financial support for this Kimbilio Project to provide life-changing education to children in the Democratic of Congo. Children who are forced to live on the streets in Lubumbashi consequently fall behind on their education and, if continued, will lead to them struggling to get a decent job when they are older. Every child deserves the opportunity of a full education and Kimbilio can now offer this at their new Kimbilio School.
It is so encouraging to see the happy faces of the children as they go to school. Your donations finance the salaries of the teaching and support staff, the purchase of teaching materials and the maintenance of the school building and grounds. The school is very popular with the local families who cannot afford the fees for State schools. Thank you for your support.

Hi, As we approach the end of another successful year for the staff and pupils at the Kimbilio School, I would like to thank you very much for your financial support for this important Kimbilio Project. Your contributions pay for the school fees, the teaching materials, the maintenance of the school buildings and fields and the salaries of the teachers and support staff.
It is so encouraging to see children, who have been rescued by Kimbilio from life on the streets, being able to return to education and being able to learn alongside their peers. Education is the key to leaving behind the cycle of poverty and every child should have the opportunity to pursue their dreams. The Kimbilio school is fortunate in having its own IT Suite, thanks to the generosity of donors like yourselves. This means that the children can gain the IT skills that will open up so many careers for them when they leave school.

Hi, Thank you so much for your financial support for this most important of projects - providing life-changing education to children in the DRC. The cycle of poverty can be broken through children gaining skills at school that enable them to have careers that will support their families.chool has been
The Kimbilio School has been operational now for several years, with currently 284 children at nursery, junior and secondary levels. The pupils are a combination of former street children and children from families in the local area. Children who have been living on the streets fall behind in their education, so it is a priority for the Kimbilio team of carers in Lubumbashi to address this.
As Kimbilio are paying the school fees for the children, it means that local families, who cannot aford to send their children to State school,s can send their children to the Kimbilio school. It is a very popular school!
Thank you again for your support, which pays for the salaries of the teachers and maintenance staff, the school fees and the books, IT equipment and stationery
