_ The 2024 Kick for Kenya and Clean Water:
Please join us on Saturday morning, May 18, for the 2024 Kick for Kenya and Clean Water 5K!
Run or walk for a cause - proceeds from this year's race will be used to help fund planning, training, pilot projects, and/or additional land acquisition for eventual construction and development of a community center in rural eastern Kenya in partnership with Kenya Kids (US-based nonprofit), the Touch Africa Child Education Project (TACEP, a Kenyan NGO), and the local community. A small plot of land ideally situated for the community center has been identified and purchased by TACEP, with right of first refusal to purchase additional adjacent acreage. The long-term vision for the center includes TACEP field staff offices with dedicated space for tutoring and counseling, educational and vocational training, agricultural demonstration plots, and on-site housing for children or families in need and/or short-term international visitors. Any excess funds raised will be invested where needed most, in particular to provide educational opportunities, improve public health, and address the compounded effects of several consecutive years of extreme weather (a prolonged drought followed by recent flooding), which has led to food and water insecurity throughout the region.
