Christmas Carols 2025
On Friday 19th December 2025 Friends of Dagoretti Children held a Christmas Carol sing-a-long at Matteos Events in Karen, Nairobi. Amelia, Amara and Nyambura, all ex Banda School girls started us off with Once in Royal David’s city and then some volunteers from Karen Amateur Dramatics Society led us into a fun few hours of Christmas cheer. Julius Ngeche, from the Banda School, kindly donated his time and skill to give us some keyboard music to sing to. Many, many thanks to KADS and Julius, Amelia, Amara and Nyambura for their help. And, of course, to all the supporters who turned up to sing and buy raffle tickets. We raised a great amount which was fantastic. Thank you.

Successful Golf Fundraising Day Ensures Students Education
Friday 16th May saw another successful Golf Fundraiser at Karen Country Club, near Nairobi. Despite raining earlier in the week, the day dawned bright and sunny with a full field enjoying the golf. The hardworking fundraising team, led by Linda Cuthbert, was there all day and well into the evening, ensuring that all went according to plan. And it did, with over ksh 2 million raised for educational needs.
Our thanks go to all who took part.
A winning team!
