Taken in 2001, before free grammar school education was mandated by the new president of Kenya in 2002.  A resident from Mukuru was able to begin a school on land granted by the government.  He had few resources and there were as many as 100 children in a classroom.  But he believed that a poor education was better than no education.  The children were so eager to learn!  Now, thanks largely to AmericaShare (www.AmericaShare.org [1]), the school is much better equipped and some students have obtained sponsors to attend high school ($500/year).
