HOW WE ARE FUNDED
As we are a private non-profit organisation, we do not receive any funding from the Kenyan government. All activities are financed by donations from private donors, companies and foundations. We are also supported by development aid from the government of the Faroe Islands.
Donations are administered by the Danish church, Betania Church Center through the department for Missions Abroad. The daily finances of our Children’s Home and schools are audited by an external auditor in Kenya.
