Cheppema

Originally constructed in 2003, the school buildings and a medical clinic are currently not in use. In a conversation with local community members, they have identified their greatest need to be a hospital on this site. Pregnant women are currently traveling 27 kilometers (16.5 miles) down some pretty rough roads just to give birth.

There is plenty of land available here to repurpose buildings for the medical clinic/hospital and still provide some farmland to help support this ministry.

A church building was constructed and the pastor was serving here until about one year ago. The church continues to meet but the building is mostly used for Children’s Bible Clubs on Saturdays.

A small orphanage of 17 children is next door, run by the local bishop of the African Inland Church. Helping Kenya Kids is currently providing a lunch consisting of rice, corn, and beans daily for these children.
