Comic Relief awarded a grant of GBP 910,155 to Kenya Community Development Foundation for work in Kenya, dated 15 July 2015.
Overview
Kibera, on the edge of Nairobi, is the largest slum in Africa, with over a million people living in crowded conditions. Few people are in school or have regular jobs.This grant will enable a well-respected Kenyan grant-making foundation to support local organisations based in Kibera with funds, training and advice, with a particular emphasis on youth, women and sustainability. These organisations will be encouraged to become self-supporting so that they can raise funding from other local donors and implement a wide variety of activities to help some of the poorest people improve their lives.In addition, the grant will facilitate some of Comic Relief's communications work in Kibera.
