Here is where you will find
all the different ways we have and will continue
to support
Kenyan families,
communities,
and individuals.
Greenhouses are a great way to not only
bring a food source to a community,
but economic growth as well.
Tandum puts up greenhouses
in schools, women groups
and communities.
Greenhouses
Malkia sanitary packs
Period poverty is a very real issue in Kenya,
with many girls and women not having
reliable access to period products.
These packs come with
reusable pads, undies, and training
on how to properly use them.
Each pack has enough pads to last
up to 3 years!
They are also made by a local women's group
so Kenyan made and produced!
Malkia means Queen in Swahili
and was the name chosen by
some of the girls who received
these packs.
Energy saving cookers
Many of the schools Tandum works with, have a lunch program that provides a cooked meal for the students. Some of these students come from families where food is hard to come by,
so these lunch programs mean a lot and also keep students coming to get an education.
Tandum funds energy saving cookers to these schools so they can cook with very little firewood.
We also provide small cookers to individual families.
Mapenzi women
It is a known fact that when you invest
in women, not only their family but the whole community benefits.
Tandum works with women in
facilitating training, financial advice
and business development.
80% of Kenya's farms
are run by women.
Water tanks
Water tanks are life-giving.
Many Kenyans are forced to walk up to 6km
to retrieve drinking water every single day.
Most of this drinking water is sourced from lakes, rivers, and shallow wells, yet 41% of the population lack access to basic sanitation.
Our tanks provide a safe water source,
supporting people in caring for their farms and families.
Solar lights
Solar lights make an amazing difference in a families life.
A donation of a solar light not only provides light, but can be used for charging small items such as mobiles,
save money and keep a family healthy.
Dairy goats
Food insecurity is extremely prominent for families and communities experiencing poverty and drought.
Tandum helps source dairy goats to those in need. Dairy goats are also known to produce 2-3 litres of milk every day, so it also gives them the opportunity to make some money for their families and communities.
