The
Kenyan School
Project is working to improve the lives of
children in Kenya by promoting better educational
opportunities and health.The Burguret Primary
School is located in a semi-arid region in the
Great Rift Valley in East Africa. The people in
this region are subsistence farmers and survive
in the face of poverty and draught.
The key to a
better future for these children lies in providing an
excellent education and good health.
The Kenyan School Project has formed a partnership with the Burguret Primary School to help the school accomplish the following:
- Construction of a building for two preschool classrooms - $9,800
- Building a school kitchen - $6,700
- Establishing a school lunch program - $10,500
- Installation of a stone water tank - $4,500
Although school is compulsory in
Kenya, the government falls short
of support. 
The Burguret Primary
School has excellent teachers
and staff and the support of the
community but funds are limited.
Your contribution will have a
direct impact on improving the
lives of these children. Children
are enthusiastic about school and
many students walk long distances to
attend school. We strive to provide
these students with the tools they
need to better their education.
The Burguret Primary School ranks third academically in their area and this performance can be credited to the devotion and commitment by the teaching staff, positive attitude and commitment of the pupils, co-operation of the parents, and support by stakeholders. The teachers and school management committee, the school board and the community established the following goals:
Eradication of illiteracy in the community by
providing quality education- To have an educated and morally upright community through exemplary teaching and child mentoring.
- To have a school with most of the necessary facilities available to include; enough classrooms and furniture, a school kitchen and lunch program and improved water storage capacity.
- To be able to install electricity and computers in order to cope with information technology.
Crop failures caused
by draught, loss of
parents to AIDS
and lack of a good
dietary intake has
had an adverse
effect on learning.
The Kenyan School
Project strives to have a direct impact on the
lives of these children by improving educational
opportunities and health.
