The foundation supports several humanitarian projects in Kenya. Free schools have been opened under its auspices in Kibera, the largest slum in Africa. Its team looks after a shelter for Kenyan orphans and for children who fled countries at war.
Life in Kibera means extreme poverty. Large families in this corner of the city live on the equivalent of about 90 roubles a day. Children in Kibera are fed once a day, on maize porridge cooked in water. There is no running water, no sewerage, no electricity and no hospitals. Instead there are shocking mountains of rubbish — the material Kibera builds its homes from.
The foundation's goal is to give the children of this destitute corner of Africa the joy of childhood and a chance to grow up healthy and educated. To that end, Children Must Live brings together people who care and are ready to help children on a distant continent as much as they can.
