Etatu Annual Report 2021-2022
Charity Name: Etatu – educational charity working in Msambweni, Kenya Registration No. 1148978
Address: 5 Dod Lane, Glastonbury, Somerset, BA6 8BZ Trustee Names: Jacqueline Lindgren, Rupert Rumney, Janet Pryer
Structure and Management:
The founder and Chair of Trustees effectively serves as the CEO and general administrator, serving legal and administrative functions, fundraising and organising and overseeing the team of part time workers in Kenya.
In Kenya, there is a team of five part time staff who fulfil the duties required to carry out the charity’s objectives.
Activities and Objectives:
To sponsor children in secondary school: 48 children were provided the opportunity to attend secondary school, 14 boys and 34 girls, mainly as boarders. The numbers were maintained at broadly the same level as last year, a reflection of the fundraising situation, and continued to be managed by being careful about the number of new Form 1s taken on. Noone lost their sponsorship for reasons of financial constraint.
To fund and oversee the management of the Msamwbeni Orphans Programme – providing a healthy meal and chance for play once a week, providing school uniform and medical care as required.
To maintain the banda as a meeting place, library and focal point for the sponsored children, particularly in holiday time.
To assist Msambweni Primary School: to sponsored teachers and assist in other identified and affordable ways.
Achievements:
All children sponsored completed a year of schooling. This was the last year of ‘catch up’ from Covid, where the government compressed one and a half year’s schooling into the year. This put a strain on childrens’ capacity to learn and on everyone who pays fees, both families and Etatu. We continued to support the two who enrolled in Vocational Training last year, and added another, a young woman who enrolled in an electronics course.
The Orphans’ programme was maintained and we continued to support 44 orphans through Covid. We tood the decision to send 15 of the MOP children of early primary age to Karama Academy, instead of the local Msambweni Primary School, in spite of the financial cost of this. Five children were supported at ECDC – Early Childhood Decelopment Centres
(nursery school/kindergarten.) All primary school leavers were supported, either through sponsorship, vocational training or paid work in the community.
The Banda: this continued to function as it always has and has secured a valued place in the community.
Msambweni Primary School: we sponsored two teachers; and provided the school lunch for children taking their final KCPE exams. Thirty vulnerable families are assisted with school charges, to ensure they remain in school and their education is uninterrupted.
Other activities:
a) We conducted food distributions at Eid to needy families in the area as well as the the MOP families.
b) General: Covid presented fundraising obstacles, but all our areas of provision managed to continue.
c) Three school leaver volunteers visited for six weeks, working at Msamwbeni Primary Schhol.. They raised enough funds to buy a water tank for the school, along with the appropriate shelter, stand and plumbing.
d) We began a relationship with the Special Needs Unit of Milalani Priomary Schhol nd aim to develop this in the future.
Debts: The Charity has no debts and holds no funds as a custodian trustee
