Grace and Peace Orphanage Centre

Donation protected
A humble welcome to Grace and Peace Orphanage(GPOC) located in Kakamega (western part of Kenya) 179 miles from the capital Nairobi. The organization was founded in 2006 with the aim to house and provide basic needs to orphans from different backgrounds and ethnicities. They are jovial kids with beautiful infectious smiles that lightens up our world.

Our target through this fund drive is USD 70,000 from this initiative to meet our targets of providing to the needy and daily management of the organizations activities.

Building project.

We have a couple of projects we are undertaking aligned with our vision and long-term goals. Currently a 2-story building project is underway, a center they can call home. It will have cubicles with beds, a kitchen, dinner, common rooms and offices. In addition, there will be a health clinic on the premises for basic treatments and checkups run by a qualified Nurse and A Doctor. We started with 12 kids and now we have 92 children aged 2-18 years thus the expansion.

This being the biggest project we’ve had since the foundation was launched, we are shy of our target by USD 34,010.00 to completion and later furnish prior to occupancy. The stated amount will go towards purchase and acquisition of;400 bags of cement, 32 windows, 32 doors, Beds and beddings and complete furnish.

 School fees Budget USD 29,690 mount per year

The second phase will see the purchase of shoes, uniforms, bag packs and books. They walk to nearby schools 2-5 Kilometers every day for their studies. In future will buy a van to pick and drop them off school. And in 1or 2 year will built an elementary school within our property to ease the expenses on early education.

Majority of the kids are in in primary (elementary education) school while the older ones are in High schools. The last two years has seen 5 join colleges and universities from our programs.  Our center and its well-wishers has done its best to provide as per our capacity. However. the swelling numbers and tight budget, we are struggling to keep up and still execute daily functions.  Our Annual target for this phase school fees is USD. 29,690.00. Below is a simple breakdown.
NB: personal effects are included in the fees (uniforms, books, shoes, pens etc)

Feeding program budget.

This the most tasked area that we cannot fail to provide for the kids. With some of the students in boarding school it reduced our expenditure of food, drinks and other necessities for survival. Our monthly budget is USD. 4,935-6,300, this varies depending o the cost of items and also the number of kids whereby its high on holidays.

With the above summary we cordially invite you to partner with us to assist build young dreams. Your monetary contribution will go a long way to put a smile on ones’ soul. We also ask for any donations, guidance, contacts and connection that will have a positive impact towards, growth of the kids and managing the organization. Please note the amount expressed is in US Dollars.
