On Saturday night (3 February), fire broke out in the dormitory of Bishop
Wambari School in Naivasha Kenya. We thank God no-one was injured (the girls
were studying in another building), but, as you can see from the photo, the
building was extensively damaged, and beds and clothing were destroyed.
Simon Kinyanjui, Director of the project, wants the school up and running again within 2 weeks so that the
girls’ education isn’t badly disrupted.
We have been able to make an immediate donation of £8,000 to
help refurbish the roof, walls and floor, but we will need more to replace beds
and equipment. £10 would help replace bedding, £30 would repair a bed, £100
would re-plaster a wall.

or large – please either:
·

to 79, Lynwood Grove, Orpington, BR6 0BQ

Thank you for your support!
