Our story
We use the funds raised to educate kids in fun and creative ways to NOT USE DRUGS. We team up with programs already at work and create our own. This epidemic needs attention as much as anything else we can think of at this point to help our kids grow and prosper.
The epidemic of drug use robs the peace and safety of our communities. Loss of life, crime, and breakdown of family strength and stability touch too many already. We want to be part of addressing this problem in any way we can. How was this need determined?
Too many families and businesses are touched by this major issue. We see and hear it almost every day at this point. It’s putting a strain on our entire country. Small things done right now can make a big difference and can be contagious. Too many children are seeing and experiencing things no child should have to see or experience. We want to turn this into education for these kids to “go the other way” and for the kids who are on the right track, to stay on the right track.
Kids Of Samburu
Our mission for the Kids of Samburu became important when we took a long awaited family excursion to Kenya. Exploring the sights and enjoying a safari, we discovered much more!
We found the Kenyans fascinating. They touched our hearts and we were forever changed. In June of 2007, our Journey took us to a tribal Samburu village seven hours north of Nairobi. We saw children playing soccer with crumpled cardboard wrapped with rope forming what resembled a soccer ball. It was then that the youngest of our group, 12 year old Michael, asked if we could come back and bring the kids real soccer balls.
Two years later we did just that, and a whole lot more. In the five visits since, we built a classroom for the nursery school kids, took retired soccer jerseys donated by high schools in our area. We have provided food, clothing, body wash, hundreds of mosquito nets, school supplies, goats and many other basic necessities.
The appreciation they have for the basics is hard to describe and heartwarming in a way that words cannot express. Kid Love Foundation will help this village in any way we can!
Let’s make a difference together!
