We’re raising money for the street boys of Mombasa, Kenya
Shoulder 2 Shoulder Overland is raising money for Shoulder to Shoulder International, a non-Governmental organisation in Kenya. They run a Children’s Home for street boys near Mombasa – being children abandoned on the streets and left to fend for themselves.
They provide them with a secure place to live in the home, and put them through education. Some of their previous orphans have gone on to university, and others have returned to the Children’s Home to help young children in the home.
