Kabitungu Junior Secondary School

Kabitungu Junior Secondary School

The Board of Management, Teachers, Parent and Students of Kabitungu Junior Secondary School had requested for funding through Bureti Tea Factory Ltd to support the stocking of their junior secondary school classrooms with desks and chairs. The student population stands at 50, most of which were using furniture that was damaged beyond repair. The estimated cost of a desk and chair had been estimated to be around 5000ksh or thereabout thus their total request was for 250,000 kshs. This school supports various under privileged children. These are the children of small holder farmers in Kericho county, and contribution will go a long way to facilitating their education.

AGC Baby Center

AGC Baby Center

The AGC Baby Center fronted by Kuresoi Tea Factory Limited. This is a charitable institution that exists to rescue babies between the ages of 0-4yrs old who have been abandoned, orphaned, or are facing violence and offer them a temporary home before they are adopted into homes or placed into foster care. The institution relies entirely on donations from churches and well-wishers for the provisions of the needs of these babies. Most of these children come from the tea growing areas of Kericho, Bomet and Nakuru and regrettably, some have been found abandoned in the tea plantations of these areas.
