Twenty five new children were admitted to Jubilee Children's Center recently. They were rescued from the slums and from a life of starvation and degradation.

Sponsor a Child Program
It is our goal to find two sponsors for each of our more than 130 children, as this is how we generate money for the operation of Jubilee Children's Center. Because of the inflation rate in Kenya, we anticipate that it will cost about $600 per year to care for one child in 2009. This covers the basic needs of food, clothing, housing, teacher and staff salaries and supplies. When possible, a few extras are provided, such as Christmas presents, special holiday meals and the annual purchase of leather shoes.
Full sponsorship is $500 per year.
Co-sponsorship is $250 per year.
Other Ways to Support the Children
Text Books and School Supplies
As of 2009, there are classes from pre-school to the equivalent of 12th grade at Jubilee Children's Center. School supplies and text books are needed on a yearly basis.
School text books and supplies:
$40 per child/per year
$100 per subject/per year
$600 per year to "Adopt" a class
$25 per year per child makes this possible in Kenya.
In 2006, the KEEP Fund was created by KOP and the funds are restricted to higher education. All children will need either college or vocational education before they can enter the job market and break the cycle of poverty. The earnings of the KEEP Fund will be used to pay for college tuitions, vocational teachers and materials.
A contribution to this fund is an investment into the child's future.
