Compassion in the Kibera Slums – A Slideshow

Feature General Opinion

If you’ve followed this blog recently, you will know I spent some time at a Compassion project in the Kibera slums of Nairobi, Kenya. Compassion is a TEAR Fund partner. They are the organisation we do child sponsorship through.

I thought I would share a slideshow of my favourite photos that I took while at the project. The kids were wonderful and the experience will be etched in my memory as a highlight forever. Hopefully you can capture something of the experience through these images.

Each of the children in these images has a sponsor – someone who has decided to invest in their lives to help give them a bright start in the most poverty stricken circumstances. If you would like to invest in the life of a child, call TEAR Fund on 0800 800 777.
