Testimony from a Board Member.


Mrs Sarah Wepukhulu attended Kimilili FYM primary school. She has not let the polio she suffered from as a child stop her from great achievements. She has an engineering degree and is now a Senior member of staff with Kenya Power and Lighting Company.

A large crowd gathered for Disability Day



Hundreds of people gathered at Kimilili FYM Primary School for Kibingei Local Transformation Unit's day to celebrate the achievements of disabled people.

The preacher was Mr Benson Liru, Deputy Principal of one of the top Boys' High Schools in Bungoma. He zoomed up and down in his wheelchair as he challenged the people!

Students are now in School!

We thank God for a number of new sponsors and for the young people who are now in Form One. We are still looking for a school for one boy.
Results for 2008 are just out and I shall post these when we get them. So far I have heard that Amos at Kivaywa has an A-, for which we really thank God.
The results for the Nation are no longer given in a League Table, taking a lot of pressure off schools. The best candidates are named in the newspaper. Our big local schools, Friends School, Kamusinga and Lugulu Girls' High School have done very well. We have sponsored students in both schools.
