Tigithi is a rural Primary School located in Naro Moru on the slopes of Mount Kenya, surrounded by forest and small farms.

The girls set off today on their journey to Lusaka, Zambia.

Saturday 12th of June was a brilliant night in Slaughtneil Hall. The Granaghan Outreach girls who are travelling to Zambia in July organised a great night’s entertainment.

On Tuesday night, members from Granaghan Outreach seized the opportunity to meet with Sr Ronnie Rafferty during her brief visit home from Argentina. In January 2010, Granaghan Outreach made a contribution to the Dominican Sisters in South America.

Lusaka, Zambia will be the destination of the first Granaghan Outreach trip for 2010, while details of the second trip which is likely to see a return to Kenya in October, are being finalised. Maggie Bradley, Marianne Bradley, Ciara McEldowney, Katie McEldowney, Margaret McEldowney and Denise McGuigan are set to travel in July 2010.

Local missionary priest, Fr Tom McDonnell, has links with the sisters running the hospital, so following discussion with Fr Tom, Granaghan Outreach provided funding which will be used for the feeding program run by the sisters.

On the 11th October 2009 a team of 8 volunteers commenced their journey to Kenya. The 2009 project was the new build of a dormitory at the Kayieye School in Siaya, the same region of Western Kenya, visited in previous trips.

Noreen’s Well is built on the site of Barkatado Orphanage in Western Kenya. Not only does it provide water for the orphanage children, but people from the entire community now have easier access to a potable water supply
