A special thank you to Anette Nordstrand !
Our colleague, our friend, and the friend of Upendo
She has been our supporter since the beginning and has made a generous contribution.
Later on, she had the extreme elegance and nobility to donate the money collected for her leaving party.
Thank you to Philippe Gestido !
Back in 2006, my friend and colleague Philippe Gestido was the spark for an altruistic action.
He decided to approach his colleagues for help in collecting money to help the Children of Upendo.
He put time and energy in to the effort and eventually made it to Kenya to give some hands-on charity assistance !
Now ! He is raising funds in Spain and Portugal for the Upendo children.

CECILIA SPONSORS :
Help Yvonne and the Upendo's children to grow up and become what they dream to become !
Sponsor a child !
The Upendo's children need our support so they may reach Secondary School Level.
The cost incurred by a secondary school education is approximately 800 euros a year.
It covers room and board as well as all fees, school supplies, clothes, personal hygiene supplies, medical expenses and everything else the student needs for the entire year.
Make a Difference and Sponsor a Girl Today
Sponsoring one of the girls at Upendo School and Children’s Home could be one of the most important decision you ever make !
Only 48% of girls in Kenya attend secondary school. Among orphans, the statistic drops even further.
Education Changes Lives
A secondary school education changes lives. Your sponsorship does not just change the lives of the student, but also the Murang’a community, improving the quality of life for everyone – now and into the future.
Your sponsorship can help end the cycle of poverty for the orphans at Upendo and help the girls transition into a future full of success, fulfilment and independence.
The girls of Upendo understand the importance of an education and have consistently had top ranked exam scores in their district. They hope to become doctors, lawyers and accountants. With your help they can succeed.
Structure of the Kenyan education system
Kenya’s education system is divided into three stages: primary, secondary and higher education. Primary education starts at the age of six, lasts for eight years and is organised in three stages: lower primary (ages 6-8 or grade 1-3), middle (9-10 or grades 4-5) and upper primary (ages 11-13 or grades 6-8). Secondary education lasts four years (ages 14-17 or form 1-4).
