Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

This December I will be taking part in this sponsored walk over a distance of 80km over three days, from the holy city of Najaf to the holy city of Karbala. I will be walking across the dessert, along with millions of other people, during the day and resting in makeshift tents at night. 

This year we've worked alongside the World Federation to come up with a £137,000 project that will aim to improve water supply, food production, health, education and socio-economic status of the poor and needy in the Garissa and Wajir Counties of Northeast Kenya.

We aim to do this through the following:

1. To construct a borehole in Boransis in Garissa County to improve water supply for the village.

2. To set up a greenhouse and irrigation and farming system in Boransis village of Garissa County. 

3. To set up a greenhouse and irrigation and farming system in AliKune village of Garissa County. 

4. To set up a greenhouse and irrigation and farming system in Giriftu village, Wajir County. 

5. To dig 20 shallow wells in Wajir County.

6. To rehabilitate 40 shallow wells in Wajir County.

7. To develop 200 kitchen gardens in Wajir County.

8. To construct two 4-door latrines in Wajir and Garissa Counties.

9. To plant 5,000 trees. 

10. To provide desks, chairs and shelves to 2 needy schools.

11. To sponsor 10 students from the target areas studying in various colleges and universities of Kenya.

12. To evaluate the effects of the above projects mid-term, at completion and one year after completion.
