Bethel School Kisumu

We thank God the new term going on well.

Happy New Year!

It has been long 10 months ever since the first case of Covid-19 was officially announced in Kenya and like other schools we also closed our centre for safety reasons.

We are glad to open again. 2021 marks our 4th year of transformation and impact by God's grace. We have never thought this would even be possible. Thanks to our friends and supporters who have been part of this journey though their support in terms of advice and giving.

Ours was to impact the children, but we have seen homes and parents impacted through their children who attend Bethel School. In a community where Gender Based Violence, Drug abuse and other challenges occasioned by disease are rife, the centre has become a beacon of hope in Nyalenda.

As we start the new year, we have welcomed some of our learners and we expect some to join us in the coming week. One of the areas of focus as we go forward is enhancing our sustainability to continue with this work as we deliver the educative and outreach programs in this community. We invite you to join hands with us by supporting our work. If you would like to know how you can be part of this please reach our via [email protected] or call +254 726 131507

We are all home in compliance to government directive on

We look forward to new week full of blessings and fruits of hardwork.

Today affords us a first in 2020! We look forward to a great learning experience with the little angels.

We are headhunting a qualified teacher to work with us for at least 6 months with a stipend.

2019 was a momentous year for us since we begun this wonderful journey in 2017. We did not know what the next step had in store but throughout the journey we have seen transformation and our faith has been tested. It has not been smooth. Every rugged path has shown us how God's boundless love and provision is ever-flowing.

The transformation narrative as transcended our work and has settled in many homes including ours. This year we had the first lot of graduates who were part of the first cohort among them the first 3 children who came on day one.

We are happy to share that many friends have been part of this story through making random contributions to further this work as well as many volunteers who have given their time and expertise to enable us achieve some goals. Among them we cannot fail to mention the late Emmanuel Jadudi who donated 2 computers to us, may he RIP.

While this has achieved enormous results our key focus is to move the project towards a path of sustainability and more impact while still focusing on what we exist to do. To achieve this we still making a clarion call to those who share in the vision of Bethel School to come on board in any way possible.

A great story is that out of the 9 children that graduated this year, all have successfully secured Grade 1 admission for next year. It is worth mentioning, 3 were on G.O.K Anti-retro-viral therapy.

What we have been able to achieve this year with your gift and strategic counsel is to provide all the children enrolled in our school have never missed a warm cup of nutritious porridge in the morning, a plate of lunch and G.O.K Competency Based Curriculum 5 days a week for 37 weeks.

We have seen children and families change. The whole of Bethel School school fraternity loves you and wishes you a Merry Christmas and a prosperous new year!

Shalom!
