About
c4c means ‘citizen for change’ and is a charity that aims to provide funds to assist young people in Kisumu, Kenya to generate a living for themselves. This could mean the provision of basic requirements such as food or medical expenses for survival to begin with but progressing toward creating opportunities in education and to train in useful skills e.g. driving, carpentry etc. or the capital for a small business enterprise. We are currently endevouring to raise funds for a new school to house the children of the slum area of Nyawita.

The team in Kenya, headed up by James and Alic Samo,have enabled us to embark upon projects that have given children a chance to graduate in the skills for life programme. Some have already been able to provide for themselves by gaining qualifications and skills and getting jobs in nearby towns.
The economic impact of such training, nurturing and development is the removal of the garbage-filled shanty towns that have emblazoned themselves upon several proud communities.
We invite everyone to get involved with us- through sponsoring the school, embarking on a sky-dive, organising events like Dinner 4 Good or just coming along for a coffee at our new Coffee Shop when it opens.
