Community Update - The Power of Play

Community Update - The Power of Play
May 28, 2019

We’re thrilled to announce our second playground in Kibera had a grand opening and dedication ceremony! This special milestone wouldn’t have been possible without the incredible volunteers who worked tirelessly during our recent trip to clear the land and bring the playground to life. We are also deeply grateful to Fritz and Lynne Healy for their generous donation to make this dream come true.

Crossing Thresholds would be a shadow of itself without the blessing of partnerships. Our impact in Kenya depends heavily on the vitality and generosity of organizations and companies who believe in change. This month, we give a shout-out to our new friends at Tauck Travel, a well-established and well-known travel company based in Wilton, CT.  In a very short period of time, they have made a huge difference with their donations of computers, Chromebooks, projectors, and more. Thank you, Tauck! Your kindness travels far.

Student Spotlight - Celebrating Our High School Graduates
May 28, 2019

Crossing Thresholds has a bold vision to ensure that every child from the Kibera Slum has an opportunity to flourish. That means a chance to grow, to learn, to identify strengths and weaknesses, to nurture those strengths, and to seek and find a vocational path. Most of our schools in Kibera began as Preschools – Baby Class, Nursery School, and Kindergarten. Fast forward 15 years, and we are now celebrating 36 young Kenyans who have passed through our schools and, in December, graduated from high school. What an extraordinary accomplishment!

Organization News - Riding for Education, 1,300 Miles Closer to Kibera

As we shared last month, our dedicated volunteer Fran Malagisi is riding 7,300 miles to raise $73,000 to help 73 ninth graders pay the $1,000 it costs to attend high school in Kibera. Each $1,000 covers tuition, supplies, and, most important, the opportunity to build a brighter future.
