The Brothers of St Charles work and live in exceptionally difficult conditions in the Slums of Kibera in Nairobi, KENYA.   They run (on a shoe string) four centres that look after a thousand orphan children who would otherwise be trying to survive on the streets.  Eastleigh and Kariobangi centres have no clean water which means than many staff and children have constant bouts of sickness.. The Brothers need in our view urgent help to provide water storage tanks for collecting and storage of safe water.  The cost is  $8250. We have agreed to finance with your help the Eastleigh Centre and hope with your help to provide clean water to the Kariobangi Centre sometime in the not too distant future.

Bro Hilary  -  "We try our best albeit with many difficulties not just to look after the children but to cater for the total  growth  of these children by helping them with literacy, vocational skills and socialization.  Eastleigh and Kariobangi centres have  given the children from the streets, a vision and belief in a better  future".  We tell them, “ALL IS NOT LOST, YOU CAN HAVE A BETTER FUTURE”.
