Charity overview

Activities - how the charity spends its money

The aim of Keep Kids in School is just that: to help kids that have lost one or both parents to keep going to school in the face of severe poverty. We fundraise and support the work of a local NGO, APEED-Benin, in West Africa. We keep kids in school by paying towards their school fees, buying school books, stationery and cloth to make school uniforms, maintaining a project library and mentoring.
