DR NJENGA FOUNDATION UPDATE
Our Rotary Club currently donates money to this foundation, so Jennifer Kube (in Peter Njenga’s absence due to sickness) gave us an update on the Foundation’s projects. As a reminder this foundation helps relieve poverty by providing basic amenities, such as food clothing, shelter, education and medicines to orphaned children, homeless people and people living with HIV/AIDS in Kenya and Canada.
Recently, volunteers from the Njenga Foundation distributed 260 food hampers containing food, assorted warm clothing, and blankets to homeless people in various parts of Metro Vancouver, mainly Vancouver, Richmond and Surrey.
Kenya update, pending donations, plans to build a large two story extension to house 40 more orphan girls. Ongoing projects are, moving the kitchen, renovate and repair the original orphanage, as well as building a new septic field and installing a new septic tank. The funds in part are from Royal City Rotary were used for this auspicious project
Unbeknownst to Jennifer or Peter, the RCR presented a cheque for $3,100 for the current and future projects, which Jennifer gratefully accepted .
