Hello dear people, It has been some time since we have heard/seen anything about our foundation, i.e. our projects in Kenya. There have been some circumstances that unfortunately meant that our annual visit to the projects could not take place. In itself very annoying, but fortunately there is the digital highway. That does not mean that we have been sitting […]
And further A group of 12 elderly people, over 70 years old, who live in rural areas and are all widows, have also asked for our help. We couldn’t say “no” to that, so we went to the store and looked together to see what was needed. There is plenty of choice, but the finances are not always sufficient to […]
Although Covid 19 was still not completely a thing of the past, after having done the mandatory tests, we were able to travel to our projects in Kenya. However, it was a few months later than planned. Normally we are there in the months of February and March. Despite this delay, it felt like coming home again. The preparations had […]
Let’s just start with the less good news about this trip and stay. Unfortunately, we have not been able to do everything due to the corona crisis. Partly for this reason a short report this time. The first week that we are in Nairobi, the capital of Kenya and our base, we have to put our “local” administration in order. […]
In March and April we visited Kenya again and visited the usual projects that we financially supported. New was our first visit to the Munengi Pri. School in Naivasha, Kenya. About 200 children go to this school, divided into eight classrooms, as far as you can still speak of premises. This school was built about 35 years ago and looks […]

I've been looking at this school and talked to the executives there. It has been found that hygiene in this school was very poor. This is […]
[:nl]This year we also sent another container to Kenya with a lot of stuff in it. This container left for Kenya in early 2016. When the container arrived, Of course, I was also present to manage everything. This year, however, I had to stay longer than planned, because the container had been delayed on the way. During my presence in […]

This year, from February to mid-April, Janet went to Kenya again for the projects that run there, however, she had classified this visit differently. For the first time, she spoke to the various parties involved, including even the children. She visited the grandmothers and talked to them about how the children are doing. She also went to the schools to […]
From 21 February to 5 April 2014 Janet was back in Kenya this year. This time she didn't donate clothes, but only money for making 60 school benches. And she did the necessary paperwork for the foundation. Before these banks were made, 3 children shared a school bench on average. Now this has changed and there are only two children […]
