The primary school project started as a community project. It has since attracted funding from the Kenyan government, OPEC and various members of Kijabe Hospital. It is also funded by several US-based donors. 

Since 2010, the primary school has grown from a single tin hut to an eight classroom building teaching over 600 children. But there is still not enough room for all the local children. 

They also need more teaching materials. To help children study, the school hopes to one day have at least one book for every child. 

Early childhood development centre

The primary school wants to develop an early childhood development centre for pre-school children. The new centre will give their children the head-start they need to start primary school. 

To do this, they need to build a classroom and they need equipment and materials.
