The Prep School Charity - Love in Action
Aiming to help people less fortunate than ourselvesby showing practical Christian 'love in action'.
The Preparatory School charity started in 2009 in response to the realisation that we are a privileged community living in an area of rural poverty. Through the efforts of pupils, staff and parents, we have raised money to instigate a variety of initiatives to help individuals, families and larger groups of people in the neighbourhood. We try to work through our local church links inTurias well as with the Turi Chief and her administration.
Current projects include:
- Working with TuriSulgwita Primary School to run a lunch programme for some of the most vulnerable children in the school.
- Providing uniforms for those children who would otherwise be prevented from attending school because of this cost to the family.
- Providing food parcels for needy families through our network of local partner churches.
- Helping the Talents Church Boys' Home in Elburgon to increase their self-sufficiency by helping them to build a pig-sty and start breeding and selling pigs to generate income for future development.
Our biggest andmost exciting challenge is an initiative with Turi Churches and the local community to set up a day care project called the Turi Children's Project (TCP), to help support vulnerable young people.
