Educate 50 children with disabilities in Kenya

Dear GlobalGiving Team and Supporters,

Warm greetings from Leroy Bones Foundation.

We are delighted to share an update on our "Educate 50 Children with Disabilities in Kenya" project. Thanks to your generosity and compassion, children who would otherwise be excluded from education are now receiving the opportunity to learn, grow, and thrive. We are pleased to report that the project is currently supporting nine children to attend specialized schools where they receive education tailored to their individual learning needs.

In addition to quality education, these children benefit from structured learning environments, specialized teaching, and opportunities to develop skills that will help them become more independent. One story that truly reflects the impact of your support is that of Mary, a four-year-old girl who was on the verge of dropping out of school. Mary's mother is raising her alone and was no longer able to meet the cost of her specialized education. Without support, Mary faced losing access to the learning environment that had begun transforming her life. Because of donors like you, Mary has remained in school. She continues to learn alongside her peers, build her communication and social skills, and receive the specialized support she needs during these critical early years. For her mother, this support has brought renewed hope and reassurance that her daughter has a brighter future. While we celebrate this progress, we know there are many more children waiting for the same opportunity.

Our goal is to support 50 children, but financial constraints mean that many deserving families are still on our waiting list. Every additional sponsor brings another child into a classroom where they can learn with dignity and reach their full potential. We kindly invite you to continue supporting this project and to share it with your family, friends, and networks. Your contribution regardless of its size helps provide school fees, specialized educational support, learning materials, and hope to children who deserve the chance to succeed. On behalf of the children, their families, and our entire team, thank you for believing in inclusive education and for investing in a future where every child has the opportunity to learn.

warm regards,

Dear  GlobalGiving Donor,

I hope this message finds you well. I’m writing to share an update and heartfelt appeal for our project, “Educate 50 Children with Disabilities in Kenya.”

1. The Vision Every child deserves the right to learn, grow, and reach their full potential — including children with disabilities. Unfortunately, in many parts of Kenya, these children are often excluded from education due to stigma, lack of resources, and limited access to inclusive schools. Our project seeks to provide 50 children with disabilities access to education by supporting school fees, learning materials, therapy services, and teacher training on inclusive practices. We believe that when given the opportunity, these children can excel and inspire others in their communities.

2. Why Your Support Matters Currently, we are in the early stages of fundraising. Many families of children with disabilities live below the poverty line and cannot afford the cost of education or therapy. Your support can change that — every contribution, big or small, moves us closer to opening classroom doors for these deserving children.

3. Our Plan Once fully funded, the project will: Sponsor 50 children with disabilities to access inclusive education. Provide assistive learning materials such as hearing aids, braille kits, and mobility aids. Offer therapy support (speech, occupational, and physiotherapy) to improve learning outcomes. Train teachers and caregivers on inclusive education to create supportive learning environments.

4. A Story of Hope Nine-year-old Mary* has cerebral palsy and dreams of becoming a teacher. Her mother sells vegetables in the market and struggles to pay for Mary’s special school fees. Through this project, children like Mary will have access to education, therapy, and hope for a brighter future. Your support can make that dream possible.

5. A Call to Action We humbly invite you to partner with us in making inclusive education a reality. By donating to this project, you’re not just paying school fees — you’re giving a child dignity, confidence, and a future. Together, we can ensure that every child, regardless of ability, has a chance to learn and thrive. Thank you for your continued kindness and generosity.

Warm regards,
