Friends is a non-profit organization, comprised of volunteers, who strive to raise funds for various projects in Kenya. Our main focus is on funding to drill more water wells for the local people in Kenya, who are not able to raise enough funding to drill a well. We act as a facilitator with donors, to walk them through the many things that a village needs to do in order to help themselves to obtain a water well. We don’t just give, but they have to prove they are willing to work with us.

Water borne diseases are the one reason for many deaths of infants and children; it is the one thing that we as caring people can fix. Clean water should not be an impossible dream, but it is something that is needed, and its fixable.

FRIEND'S CONCERT

Friends of Woni Kenya is planning the September concert again, so stay tuned to get the news of where and when. Lois Mahalia will be singing again, she is now a supporter of our projects. Save the date, as soon we will have more information on the upcoming concert. It is proving to be a good one! It will be at the Marjorie Luke Threatre, free parking, which is a plus, and the tickets are reasonable for families.

Watch this video to see highlights of last year’s Friends Concert.

Amboseli Borehole Drilling

The Maasai still can’t believe the water well! They make many phone calls to William Muli of Woni Safaris, just to tell him what the people were saying and how they felt. They now have plenty of water to bathe, wash their clothes, and water their animals.

Ngu Nyumu Borehole Drilling

After six long years of trying to find funding, it was in our own back yard. The Santa Barbara North Rotary Club funded the well with International Rotary, and many thanks to the Rotary Club in Nairobi for overseeing the project, the Langata Club

Amboseli Maasai School

There is a need to complete the second room of the Amboseli Maasai School, due to overcrowding. What is needed is desks, blackboard, and some type of flooring, and a door.

  • Other Projects

Sports Equipment for Rural Schools

Kenya has some of the best runners in the world, so why not encourage more to be great runners. Give them an opportunity to help themselves from poverty to an education they otherwise would not get.

School Workbook program

The schools we provide work books for are the two rural schools in the Lukenya area, the Samburu village in the north, and the Maasai village schools in Amboseli.

Items of Personal Hygiene for Schools

Woni Safaris and Vision Adventure Safaris visited here last year and left them with some supplies for the students, such as mattresses, cooking oil, sanitary napkins, soap, rice, beans, and other staples for the students.

Giving a Family Clean Drinking Water

Friends plans to provide clean water to some of the Africa’s poorest people and charge them nothing.
