OLIVE LEAF Foundation Kenya through its sub grantee Kiambu People Living with AIDS(KIPEWA) while being funded by USAID managed to reach 989 OVC’s in Kiambu (Central Province). The orphans were provided with educational support (school fees, school uniforms as seen on the photos), food with emphasis on nutritional support, protection (assistance to get birth certificates) and psycho social support. Between July and October 2010 KIPEWA through the follow on bilateral award from USAID EA initiated goat and rabbit rearing income generating activities for granny headed households.

KIPEWA is also a success story of OLIVE LEAF Foundation Kenya’s Swedish International Development Agency (SIDA) institutional capacity development programs that have seen the community based organisation grow and attract more funding from other donors thanks to the successful implementation of the programs.
