Friends of Kenyan Orphans Stories

We recently received this note from a St. Clare graduate who has gone on to study Culinary Arts through FOKO’s Higher Education program.

In June, members of FOKO’s staff and board met in smaller groups in the Detroit and Philadelphia areas.

This year, 18 girls from St. Clare sat for their Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education(KCSE) national examination. 

We are fortunate to be able to partner with St. Lucy thanks to generous donors like you.

Creating a birthday fundraiser on Facebook is relatively simple. We'd be honored if you choose to help Friends of Kenyan Orphans!

New face masks have been knitted at St. Clare! Mr. Joseph the tailor has done a wonderful job helping the girls to match the new masks to the school uniforms.

Thanks to a generous donor, those that stayed behind were treated to a Christmas treat.

We can't pick our favorite part of this video; the smiles, their perfectly rehearsed lines or the laughter at the end. It was sent to us from one of the many schools your donations help to support.

As the children in Kenya prepare for the Christmas season, they have put aside time to pray for FOKO and our donors, and to prepare this special message for you.

You've helped to continue our mission to support a dignified life for orphaned and abandoned children by providing basic human needs of food, shelter, clothing, education, and healthcare.

After Black Friday and Cyber Monday, there is #GivingTuesday, a day that reminds us of the importance of helping others. This day inspires us to embrace our power to drive progress around the causes we care about, not just on one day but throughout the year.

Our Founders, Bud and Sue Ozar received a note from a recent Higher Education graduate who graduated with a degree in catering, but is keeping busy crocheting during the pandemic.
