A Vision for the Future

By Andrew Mullens | Kimbilio Support

Hi, thank you so much for your financial donations to this vital project for the future work of Kimbilio with children living on the streets of Lubumbashi in the Democratic Republic of Congo. We haven't yet reached our target to enable work to begin on the first stage of the multi-purpose Day Centre, but we hope to do so soon. Our founding director, Ian Harvey, will be visiting Lubumbashi next month and Ian will be meeting with a couple of potential builders while he is there. 

The need for a new Day Centre has been heightened due to the increased numbers of children who have been displaced by the conflict in the north of the country and who have made their way south to Lubumbashi. The cathedral is currently being used as the first point of contact with Kimbilio for these children but the new Day Centre will be able to provide better facilities for giving food and water, medical treatment and counselling.
