We are making a new video to provide an overview of what we have already achieved with limited resources for the community of Langas, the slum near Eldoret in Kenya.
First of all, we have the happy news that we have left for a new location with the school where a new school community is gradually being built up. Renting the previous site was a tough pill to swallow. That is why we can now start with better conditions.
We have targeted a new building. This building is durable because it is made of brick. This building functions as a new administrative center and also temporarily houses Linda’s sewing studio. It is the secretariat for the school community (Sower) and sewing workshop (Linda’s girl and chilt empowerment). The intention is also to eventually install several desktops and serve as a learning point in digital education.
A lot of material was recovered from the old school buildings and classrooms were rebuilt, albeit not yet in robust material but corrugated iron.
In addition to these intensive works, 2 safe overnight accommodations were created on the site in secure buildings. These buildings serve to provide sleeping and overnight accommodation for students who now have to travel great distances to their home and therefore often depend on them to get to school and the sewing studio.
A large piece of land was also leased on which we now grow corn and vegetables, as basic food for the students and ladies.
Many measures are being taken in the field of water supplies: a water tank was installed, a water well was drilled and water from the water mains was also installed. Modern toilets were made.
There are plans for the ladies to purchase electric sewing machines so that they can also start a textile project, making uniforms for the students.
In short, many plans are still being made where we can really use your help and where we also want to generate moral support and interest.
