DARE: Development Assistance for Rural Enterprise

Daring Preschool

Establishing a preschool for a rural Maasai community that embraces the best of the traditional culture while preparing children for a modern future.

Target Group:

Children up to the age of 7 (the age of primary school attendance) in the area of the Olng’arua Manyatta (village). Currently there are around 50 children of preschool age.

Objectives:

To build a preschool, near the Olng’arua Manyatta, that serves the local community and provides a foundation for these children’s future education and life. Currently the nearest school is 2 hours walk away, the large elephant population make this too dangerous for young children. The school will give the children a healthy meal each day and deliver inspiration and learning with a wide range of educational tools. The school curriculum will embrace local culture and the community so that children grow with a healthy and positive attitude to their heritage.

How Samburu Project Supporters Can Help:

Funding to help drill the Daring Preschool Borehole.
The borehole will cost $27,000 and will provide clean drinking water for the school and the local community.
