In January of 2023 a team from WGLC Young adults consisting of Dave E, Jennifer B and Matteo D will be traveling to Suswa, Kenya for two weeks with Daniel Kibarita of Jalia Africa foundation. Suswa is a small village located in Kenya near the Suswa Volcano, and is about 3 hours away from Nairobi.

Our mission there will be to support the orphanage/school of Suswa and to raise funds to start construction on a much needed kitchen and dining hall for them. The small old shack they are using for it now is long past its useful days… the children have no dining area.

Our team is looking to raise $35,000 to cover the cost of materials to build the foundation for the kitchen/dining hall, and cover the cost of our travel and accommodations. 

Here is a link for more information and pictures on the work Jalia Africa foundation has been doing in Suswa, including a picture of the current run down kitchen.

If you would like to help support us please donate to us by mailing or dropping off a cheque payable to WGLC (designated for Africa 2023) or by donating online. Make sure to change the designation from tithes/offerings to Africa (Suswa) Kenya 2023.
