Education is Key to Breaking the Cycle of Poverty We are delighted to see . When Dr Peter Brierley first visited Dr Robert Ouko School, there was just one row of classrooms. Now, in the Google aerial view (picture beside), we can see a complex of buildings. The new classrooms can be easily spotted because […]
For many years Alice, retiring head teacher of Tieng’re Primary/Junior Secondary School, has longed for a functional kitchen to provide lunch for her 1000 undernourished and poverty-stricken children. Where there was little hope, through one of the generous KCT supporters, God provided funds for the entire building (the kitchen and dining room). We are in awe […]
Parenting can be very challenging, especially for single mums. Our social worker provides Positive Parental Training for caregivers. The slogan of the training is: ‘Yes, we can.’ The sessions give the women the knowledge, skills, encouragement, and emotional strength!
Currently, Cherry Brierley is acting as a rescue centre for children needing care and protection. At the beginning of 2024, four children in poor health came to the Children’s Home; they were malnourished and in bad condition.

We are delighted to fund five more start-ups after the reasonably successful outworking of our first three last year. The five have been chosen, a meeting has been held with them, and all five have received their initial funding. One, Benta, who wished to set up a grocery stall, has already done so, and it […]

Please give thanks to the Lord for the receipt of a generous donation to fund the purchase and installation of a generator at Tieng’re Comprehensive School (TICS). This will guarantee a reliable backup when the regular electricity supply fails, as it often does, causing disruption to the children’s education. Alice Aoko Atollo, the head teacher […]
We are thankful that children are eager to learn about God! However, most children in the community in the Cherry Brierley Children’s Home (CBCH) neighborhood do not attend church because their parents are too busy looking for a livelihood to support them. Every Friday, CBCH supports a local school (Tieng’re Comprehensive School -TICS) by providing […]
Kisumu Children Trust is working to provide as many desperately hungry children in the local community as we can with a nutritious cooked lunch while food is scarce and family tables are empty. Recently, we increased our free daily lunches from 100 to 120 and then 150. Will you consider helping us provide lunches for […]
