Bethsaida Community Foundation
Bethsaida Community Foundation is a community-based refuge in Kenya for the orphaned and vulnerable people. It was established in 2011. The centre is built with mud on a piece of land bought by Hika Kamau. It offers parental love, spiritual care, rehabilitation and formal education to these children, with the aim of naturing their potential and personal capacity through other myriad of activities such as non-formal learning. The foundation began as a structural project in 2009 to house and rehabilitate street children, orphans and vulnerable children. This did not stop an additional 16 children to seek refuge and education (a total of 30 in 2011). As of 2014, the school offers basic education to 91 pupils (47 boys and 44 girls). The school's teacher base is stretched to capacity comprising seven teachers (four men and three women). Volunteer teachers supplement the teachers during university holidays. The pay is supplied by donors. Despite the challenges, it has nurtured academic excellence, sports, music and acting talents.
