HAVILLA CHILDRENS CENTRE

Organization Description: 

Havilla children centre was founded in June 2009 with main intention of helping orphans and vulnerable children achieve their full life in poor setting in Kibera Slum. This came as a result of ever increasing number of children dropping out of schools as a result of lack of school fees by the parents, lack of food, spread of such infectious diseases as HIV/AIDS that has increased the number of children without one or both parents in the area. The purpose of the project is to try and reduce the number of children dropping out of school as a result of the above mentioned conditions. The project is doing these through education support for children, child counseling services and social support to improve the quality of life of the children.
