CAST KENYA
In March 2018, CAST opened its first East Africa office in Nairobi, Kenya as part of its mission to mobilise 1000 churches and expansion plans in Africa. Within Nairobi, our first target settlement is the Huruma slum, with our partner church for pilot programmes being Evangelical Victory Church, which is based in this slum.
Predominantly Christian and Islam, Huruma has a population of 36 247, and suffers a severe lack of basic services, namely: lack of medical services, poor refuse collection, poor sewage maintenance, water shortage and is vulnerable to the social ills of crime, rape, unemployment, drug & substance abuse, domestic violence, tribalism and poor education systems i.e. classes held in shanties.
So far, CAST Kenya has successfully selected and appointed Board Members, and formed a Local Management Committee (LMC) to systematically oversee the running of the organisation.
Two programmes were piloted, namely the Local Economic Development programme with a running total of 347 participants, as well as the Education and Child Development literacy programme with 263 participants.
You can support this ministry by praying for its successful growth and impact in this community, and contributing financially to ensure that CAST Kenya operates with adequate resources.
In 2020, CAST Kenya suspended all its programmes in Huruma (Kiamaiko), Nairobi in support of the government directive to reduce the spread of the Coronavirus. With that said, as an organisation, we are committed to caring for people. CAST Kenya initiated a COVID-19 EMERGENCY RESPONSE INTITIATIVE that will be raising funds to help vulnerable families that are impacted by the pandemic in Huruma and outskirts.
