Love Beyond Boundaries Foundation (LBBF)

Sobre nosotros

Love Beyond Boundaries (LBBF), founded in 2014, is a registered non profit organization based in Kenya. LBBF provides sponsorship to the orphaned, aged and most under privileged in rural areas of Kenya. It gives people a platform whereby they can support the less privileged in the society.
Kenya is one of the countries in Africa where the rate of HIV is quite high, with hundreds of children being orphaned every year. This foundation aims at reaching out to those children, show to them that there is life ahead, feed them, clothe them and also help them continue with their education. We also help them to understand the dangers of street life and also creating awareness of the dangers of irresponsible sexual behaviors. This foundation also works hand in hand with the guardians to those children.
This is the reason why Love Beyond Boundaries Foundation (LBBF) exists. We position ourselves as a development partner involved in reducing illiteracy levels through provision of primary education, feeding programs and offering medical facilitates.

Mission
Changing lives inspiring a generation

Programs:
• Feeding Program: We provide at least one meal per day to all under our care. Volunteers are assigned to visit them in their respective schools whereby we work in conjunction with the teachers to ensure they get at least a meal in the course of the day. The reason for carrying out this program in school is to help these children to concentrate more in their studies because most of them barely have a meal at home. We also supply food to those living in the slums. This is done on a weekly basis whereby we give them foodstuffs at least enough to run them fill the next donation. This foundation also tries to reach out to as many widows as it can. We visit them in their specific homed and also those under the care of nursing homes.
• Medical Program: Those children orphaned by the HIV pademic are our number one priority. The only thing between their lives and death is proper medication. We ensure they receive their anti retroviral drugs at the right time. This we also do with the help of their teachers in school. As for the children who are too weak to be in school, we have volunteers who visit then at home and administer the drugs to them at a personal level. As for the slum dwellers, we facilitate medical care to the pregnant mothers. Some of them are so poor even to pay for their antennal clinics. We normally facilitate for a nurse who checks on them until delivery. Even after the child is born, we continue providing medical care to them and the child. We ensure the child is given the right immunization.
• Educational Programs: We also have different educational programs at different levels. This ranges from hygiene, drugs, proper diet, premarital sex and proper medication.
• Giving Donations: We distribute beddings like blankets and bed sheets to the widowed and also the young babies in the slums. We also give them seedlings to plant in their small farms. We also give sewing machines to those living in the slums. This helps them to start businesses to cater for their families. As for the school going children, we supply school materials like stationary. We also provide school uniforms at the beginning of the year. As for the girls we give them underwear´s and provide sanitary towels.
• Social Program: The youths have created a social club whereby they meet on a monthly basis to share life experiences and also aimed at encouraging each other. We also hold small parties for the widowed. As for the young ones, we organize for a fun day out after every three months. Here they are engaged in activities like swimming, face painting, dancing and many more. We also give gifts at the end of every year. This applies to those who perform well in their respective classes in school.

Project:
• Happy Birthday: Our foundation mainly deals with orphans who are living in homes set aside for the orphaned. These children have been merely left in the mercies of the society. Under this project we help these children celebrate their day of birth just like they would have done if their parents were alive. Every child is brought some goodies and also a birthday cake.
