Pupils at Ashley Road Primary have been getting creative painting pebbles to sit along side the Hazlehead Primary pebbles that were already in place. Each stone is decorated with uplifting messages, vibrant patterns & inspiring artwork to bring colourful smiles to our visitors!

“Hello!” Writing that first letter from a child to their new sponsor… It’s not just about putting words on paper; it’s a chance for the child to share a bit of their world & make a real connection. 🧡 What better way to start a conversation ✍️ https://t.co/9jh6BJVz7H

Did you know when you sponsor a child through GEF your monthly donation pays their school fees; it also enables us to purchase all the school supplies & uniform they require each term🧡 £35pm you can make a profound difference in the life of a child, https://t.co/9jh6BJVz7H

Purchasing gifts for sponsor children is by no means an essential part of the program, however it sure does highlight the support & connections felt through our sponsor a child program which first and foremost supports a child’s education. 📚 #joyandhappiness #gratefuleveryday

The school holidays are underway in Kenya but that isn’t stopping the children from making use of our Iten and Karatina libraries. These libraries offer vital resources for the community while giving children a safe space to read and study. 📚 #readingtime #communityproject

The average annual salary of families we support is £300. The cost of secondary school education for a child can be over £700 & college/university can be £1,000 per year. This makes it impossible for parents to afford & why education is at the heart of @GathimbaEdwards 🧡

The lovely thing about our team paying children’s school fees in person is they get the opportunity to say a quick hello to them 👋🏿 Joined by the school head master, Joy, Rency & Gloria took a quick photo with David, on his recent visit! #smilesallround #educationforall
