Educate! Africa
September 10, 2005 - 12:31 PM

I'm working with a student run organization who funds the education of kids in africa, specifically uganda, rwanda, and kenya. I just got home from a trip to Kenya to find some kids to sponsor. If you're interested in starting a fund raising/awareness group at your school let me know or go to www.educateafrica.org for more info.

Maybe we can collaborate?

I am working on a teaching HIV/AIDS education in Eastern Africa in the next year. I also have a brief teachers' manual for HIV/AIDS education and prevention.

Let me know if you are interested,
Logan Cochrane.

Most INTERESTED!!
October 25, 2005 - 08:58 AM

am Pat, i read your post here and am most interested, i have many kids who only require very little to help them, please lets contact each other coz i want to be more active in my activities. Am in Nairobi, Kenya. There’s this family (a mum and two twin kids) I’ve been seeing here on this busy street I pass on way home daily. They’re beggars. The kids are too young to borrow, the mum begs for money to feed the kids. It was such a pity for me to pass there one day and how touching, I found the kids crying holding onto the mum! Maybe they were hungry. I went bought potato chips with my few coins and gave them to the mum. She appreciated much. These kids are beautiful, from that day I’d rather walk home since am a student and spend the money allocated by my parent for their food. Soon I’ll make sure they go to school, and be the great ladies they ware meant to be! I have a dream, and these little innocent strangers are my inspiration. Am not rich or able, but am touched. Please someone help me.
Am a good hearted Kenyan guy. Get me on eservicebay@yahoo.com Anytime please.

One teacher incorperates South Africas way into his structured learning.

I have several fundraising opportunities that can be benifitual for all involved.

Please contac me as soon as possible.

I think that your organization is doing a great thing. Maybe you've done this already but I would definitely suggest organizing some sort of fundraising events around university campuses. Also, contacting organizations like Oxfam would probably be helpful. Keep up the important work that you're doing!

You guys are planning something great for african continent but I think it time for africans to learn how to face the realities of lfe.
I hope some of our leaders will think the way you are thinking. How long will you continue to give africans fish? Is it not better to teach us how to catch the fish?
