When the Kenyan government started free primary education, a large number of children turned up for classes, but you can see in their eyes poverty, lack of school uniform but all in all they have the desire to be in school.

How much does it cost?
There are a few shortcomings or problems the projects under this centre are facing and these are listed below:
Lack of funds: The projects are supported by the locals who are also poor and hence cannot contribute much in terms of funds. Currently the centre is sourcing for funds from well wishers to contribute anything which can bring this projects programmes to success.
Lack of literature: There are few materials available which can be referred to as reading materials. These are the most important especially in capacity building. The centre aims to have a lot of literature from across the world on different projects, problems encountered, success stories, challenges and any information related to case studies.
Human resources/manpower: There are various human resources available within the area, but since the centre lacks enough funds for keeping these people on a full-time basis, project monitoring, evaluation and even supervisory become difficult.
Permanent office/building: The centre would wish to have in future a permanent office or building which will act as a referral point or full-time consulting place for those coming from different places and can offer service to their satisfaction.
