Help me access Education

St. James is a small community school located in a remote vilage of Nakuru Township; the school is built on a small piece of land donated by the community. It has one unsafe shabby wooden structure that accommodates both teachers and pupils. We need a combined effort to secure funding to construct a new permanent classroom! The community has limited resources and rarely meets the basic needs and can hardly maintain children regularly in school, let alone undertake the role of building and providing required school facilities, which is secondary in this case. Lack of classrooms, inadequate desks, stationery, exercise and text books, and lack of or torn school uniform is a routine spectacle in this school. Children fainting due to hunger – majority eat once a day or no meal at all, survives by begging, if lucky on handouts or by sheer God’s grace. Some pupils walk long distances to get to school using paths and thickets which open young girls to theft, abduction and rape which has been on the rise lately, it is a sorry state to behold. With a new classroom they will be protected from the elements as they learn. Approximately 80 students will be able to concentrate in class. Everyday these children strive for a better future with the little they have. We can help their efforts by supporting them in their strive for an education!
