Due to the post election violence in 2008 which turned over 350,000 Kenyans into refugees and the impending global financial
crisis, most poor Kenyans have become even poorer. The effect is devastating on the children as they are leaving school to
rummage through dumpsites to get food or things to sell. Girls fare even worse as they are being forced into sex for
candy worth 5 cents. An increase of 50 cents in food cost does not effect westerners very much, but if you make $1 per
day, this is astronomical. Therefore, we are putting and added emphasis on getting the children food. Thank you
for your contribution which will help feed needy children in Kenya.
Since 2006 we have been bringing books and school supplies to children in Kenya. Without
your help this would never be possible. Thank you for your donations and your prayers. May you have a blessed
and prosperous 2009! ***DONATIONS*** Make checks payable to: Global FICS

"We must learn to live together as brothers or perish
together as fools. Everybody can be great ... because anybody can serve. You don't have to have a college degree
to serve. You don't have to make your subject and verb agree to serve. You only need a heart full of grace.
A soul generated by love."
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

Habari Yako? (How are you?/kiswahili) Kenyan Child Education Fund is an international non-profit organization dedicated
to educating and empowering children in Africa. After spending 3 years in Kenya I have witnessed first hand the poverty,
disease and violence which afflicts the innocent children of Africa. Schools are inadequate at best. Food is a luxury and
proper sanitation and housing is only a dream for most children in Kenya. Over half the country lives on $1 per day and most
children do not have access to health care facilities. If you turn 5 in Kenya, you are considered lucky, as the infant mortality
rate is extremely high. Floods, starvation and sexual and physical abuse among girls and boys is a major factor in keeping
the children of Africa from living a good and long life. We at Kenyan Child Eduction Fund aim to raise awareness about the
plight of children in Africa. Our goal is to educate and instill good self-esteem among the children of Africa. These children
have been left behind for many years and through your support we can make a difference. CHANGING AFRICA, ONE CHILD AT A TIME!
