Welcome to Karibuni Children!
Karibuni Children is a UK Registered Charity. We aim to raise awareness about the plight of children living on the streets and in the slums in areas of urban and rural poverty in Kenya; and to raise money to support projects to meet their needs.
We are conscious of the importance of tight governance, so Trustees visit all our largest projects annually; we require annual budgets and regular reporting throughout the year; we have a local representative who works with the projects throughout the year.

Mercy, our senior social worker in Meru says: “On behalf of all my children I appreciate the support during this epidemic. Receive the regards of the guardians.
