Our Programs
Education: Blueview Schools - Ugatuzi & Bamburi
The Blueview Schools are the center of KenAid’s efforts.
They offer daily pre-primary and primary education (preschool and grades 1 - 4) to 175 students. The curriculum follows the Kenya Institute of Curriculum Development’s Competency-Based Curriculum (CBC), including English, Kiswahili, Mathematics, Religion, Science, Social Studies, and Physical Education. While enrolled, each student receives a nutritious meal, clean water, and access to sanitation services.
Food Security
We provide nutritious breakfast and lunch to all students every school day, enhancing their health and academic performance. The initiative supports school enrollment, attendance, and achievement by offering hot, balanced meals. Many families rely on this program for their children’s daily nourishment, making it a vital resource that encourages regular school attendance. The school farm produces key ingredients to maintain sustainability, supplemented by local market purchases when necessary.
Community Water Project
Access to clean water is a significant challenge in Ugatuzi. Investing in clean water initiatives is a fundamental step toward improving educational outcomes and fostering a brighter future for the communities KenAid serves. Time saved from not having to fetch water from distant sources can be redirected toward academic pursuits, allowing for better participation in educational activities.
KenAid is developing a 10,000-liter water tank at the Blueview School - Ugatuzi to provide affordable, clean drinking and cooking water for the school and the surrounding community.
Community Sanitation
Access to sanitation services is crucial for promoting health, gender equity, and educational attainment. Adequate sanitation facilities reduce the spread of waterborne diseases, improving student attendance and concentration. Gender-sensitive sanitation solutions, such as separate restrooms for girls and boys, foster a safe and supportive environment, particularly for young girls who may otherwise drop out of school during menstruation.
KenAid is completing an ablution block at Blueview School - Ugatuzi to provide clean, safe toilets and sanitary services. Your ongoing contributions support our efforts to develop an adequate septic field for proper and complete waste management
