Projects
Acrobatics training
This year Africa Watoto has funded the children's acrobatics training at the centre in Kikambala. The programme will help the children to develop new skills which will enable them to use in the future and also to help them have better fitness, behavior and well being. The children have formed two teams and are performing at other schools in Mombasa.
Health and Nutrition
The children who live at the centre come from the street, many of them are on glue and some are HIV positive. It is vital for the children once they come from the street to get the right nutrition so their mind and body develop and rehabilitate quicker. AW has contributed to the feeding programme in Kikambala by adding milk to their menu once a week. The children were really happy to have milk. The programme started at the end of January 2010. This year 2011 we bought a dairy cow which provides 10-13 liters per day and the children are drinking milk every day.
Advancing education
We have helped to set up a new computer lab with 10 computers for the children at the centre in Kikambala with the aim to empower the children to learn ICT skills and enable them to use them in their future.
