For the past several months, Children, Incorporated has supported the construction of a new school facility at the St. John's Community Center in Pumwani, a slum in Nairobi, Kenya. The school is now complete, and Luis Bourdet, Director of the Foreign Division, attended its opening ceremony in April. The new building contains nine classrooms as well as space for labs, offices, workshops, and a library. It will serve children attending grades one through eight, and it will qualify them to receive the Kenya Certificate of Primary Education.
Children, Incorporated funded approximately half of this project, and our participation was made possible by a generous grant from philanthropist Barry Greenstein. We are extremely grateful to Mr. Greenstein for facilitating this project, and we extend our best wishes to the children of St. John's.
The new school is housed in a large, modern building:
