Focus on Africa is a Haverhill, Suffolk based charity aiming to improve the lives of children and the needy in the Kisumu region of Western Kenya. It is run by a small team of trustees and volunteers who seek to raise funds in the UK to spend on projects that are seen as improving the lives of some of those we meet in Kenya.
Health and education are our main concern and our principal current project, following the recent purchase of land outside of Kisumu, is funding the building of a clinic for the poor of that local community.
A Brighter Future
Almost any help is of value for many of the children in Kisumu and the rural communities outside. The overall need is challenging but Focus on Africa is making a difference in some of the badly underfunded schools and orphanages by providing water, power, mosquito nets, bedding and more. We can make a difference.
Our Charity Volunteers
Charity volunteers provide an on-site presence to assess needs and make physical improvements where required.
How You Can Help
Donations of money are always welcome but would you be willing to hold an event? A Car boot sale, Cake sale, Coffee Morning or Excess plant sale perhaps? Remember a mosquito net costs as little as £5, a blanket £4, medicines to treat Malaria £10 for an adult and £8 for a child, so you can save a life for as little as £8.00.
