From Kilifi schools:

Faithmount School was set up in 2012 to satisfy a need for the provision of quality primary education for the local village children of Bofa, Kilifi, Kenya.

The school was set up by Trevor Roberts, from Hull, England after several visits to Kilifi starting in 2007.

Originally Trevor’s idea was to sponsor some of the many children from the village who did not attend school for a number of reasons, but primarily due to the inability of the families to meet the school fees.

Many of the children live in the typical mud and stick huts and their families have to survive on very low incomes.

After a couple of years, with help from family, friends and colleagues, Trevor was sponsoring 14 children, providing them with an education which otherwise would not be available to them.

During 2011, Trevor was giving thought to the best way of achieving further funding for sponsorship when he came up with the idea of actually setting up his own school, which would enable the funds to be used to assist far more pupils.

In 2012 Faithmount opened its doors and on day one, 23 local children turned up for their first day at our school.
