KILIMANI PROJECTS 2024
Washing Machines and Driers. Our washing machines are breaking down and some are now nonfunctional (see the current Nairobi machines in the picture on the left). They were all previously donated and are intended for domestic use. Our housekeeping team is now forced to wash most of the clothes by hand, which is not only strenuous but
Rescue & Home Vehicles Our home vehicles cannot meet the required needs for child rescues, fieldwork, and medical emergencies. We require a vehicle that has a higher capacity capable of withstanding tough road conditions and long distances and a vehicle that can accommodate the baby rescue team, especially when rescuing more than one baby, taking babies
Renovation of Reception Area The Kilimani home hosts not only the home but the Trust office as well. The reception serves both offices, which makes it very busy mainly during office hours to receive donations and serve as a waiting area for visitors. We have used it for many years, and all the furniture, curtains, and
Home Renovations Our home has fallen into disrepair due to a lot of wear and tear over the years, making them look unkempt. NLHT-Kilimani was last painted more than 20 years ago. Most of our interior and exterior walls are dull, worn out and chipping. This being a children’s home, we need to refurbish our walls
Gazebo Renovations This outdoor structure has been battered by the elements. The structure is faded, and worn out, and very unappealing. With the newly landscaped grounds, we would like to have it renovated to match the grounds where it stands. Renovation of the gazebo will make it fully functional and useful for both children, staff, and our
Front Car Park Shed This is our main car park. We have two company vehicles that permanently use it, the other users being our staff, and visitors. With our vehicles parked under harsh weather conditions for long hours, we have seen a lot of damage and have been forced to regularly repaint them, especially during the
Container Fabrication We have a gatehouse at the main entrance which caters for the storage of the personal belongings of our security guards, and employees, while they are at work. It is also used to store visitors’ and volunteers’ belongings while they are visiting the home. The current gatehouse is very small; the personal items of
Construction of a Perimeter Wall We aim to build a perimeter wall on the back side of our compound to provide enhanced security and privacy for the children, protecting them from external threats and ensuring that they live in a controlled, secure environment. It will also reduce the risk of unauthorized entry and provide a more
Back gate driveway & parking This is our back gate and delivery area. There is so much heavy duty activity happening in this area with mostly heavy vehicles using this parking space for parking, delivery, loading and off-loading. It is a busy area, which through the years has become extremely dilapidated. Your donation will help us
Additional CCTV Security While the Nairobi home requires additional CCTV coverage, our other 3 homes have none. Knowing the significance and reliance of coverage in the Nairobi home has created a need in other homes. It is prudent for our homes to be able to monitor the care of the children and security around the grounds
