Juhudi children is a community based organization working with orphan and vulnerable children and girls at risk of dropping out of school due to early marriage. The organization based in Trans-Nzoia County. Their main focus is to help this young children and girls to arrive at their dreams. High rate of girls getting married has become the main challenge across the county. Also children from poor background and orphans don’t attend school regularly.
Most of these children are used in big farms to work so that they can get food. They don’t get time to go to school daily because they can’t hungry in school. As Juhudi we have tried our best to reach some of children and talk to their parents to allow them to be in school as we provide lunch. This is why we came up with feeding program in school to help such children to remain in school. This program has really helped but the challenge is only fewer school benefit. It is our wish to extend this program to many schools to many schools but we lack the funds for expansion. The little money we get from our well wishers, friends and donors has boosted the program a lot. We really appreciate you people for those kind donations
We are now identifying other schools to add to the program hoping that we will get more funds for them. Also to start up business for the parents of these children so they can get money to cater basic needs for their children.
