The Kisumu Children Trust is a UK Registered Charity, number 1091477, and currently manages and supports the Cherry Brierley Children's Home in Kisumu, Kenya, through the Kenyan organisation Kisumu Children Ministries. The Home seeks to change the lives of orphaned and destitute children by providing a loving, caring Christian environment in which the children are offered education and the opportunity to develop towards independence and self sufficiency.

We are currently offering hope for around fifty needy children in a purpose designed home, officially opened on 28 August 2008 by Bishop Francis Mwai Abiero. More children are being helped through our home-based support system, and we are currently working with members of the local community to provide further help for the very poor and needy in the locality.

Following a very successful "Alternative Christmas Gift" initiative. our attention is now focused on the desperate need to provide a reliable water supply for the home and the local community. We are delighted to report that this project can now go ahead as a result of a very generous Christmas Appeal by a supporting church and other much appreciated donations. Project planning has begun and we will be pleased to keep you informed of progress!

We would love to hear from you if you feel you could contribute towards this life-changing work, especially if you could support us in equipping and developing the new facilities, or extending our work into the local community, which will offer so much hope and opportunity for the children in our care.
