School renovation BenJos primary school Mathare

Because of Covid children where at home for almost a whole year in Kenya and everyone was  happy when the schools finally where allowed to open doors again.  

Unfortunatly this was not the case for teacher Benter as her school underwent an inspection  and she was not allowed to open the school for her students as the place was not in a good  state inside and also outside.  

Benters income is her school. She also has a family to take care of and even her own children  where about to go back to school but how could she pay their schoolfees if she could not start  her work herself. 

And also her students could not go back so she was also about to loose her students to a  different school. 

Foundation Move Up together with the school and the inspector made a list about what was  needed to open the school as soon as possible and we budgeted the costs of the renovation  which came round € 300  

Thanks to the support from many well wishers and Foundation Red Ribbon we could start the  rebuilding project already one week later. 

We worked hard for 1 week and just one month later than the rest of the schools BENJOS  PRIMARY SCHOOL finally could open their doors  

We celebrated the opening with the kids and their smiles were priceless  

Education is the key to a better future . Foundation Move Up is grateful that we could help  many children to go back to school
