ASSETS -Arabuko-Sokoke School Bursaries and Gede Ruins Tree Platform Fundraiser. For our kids and conservation
We need your help to raise funds for local needy secondary school students of Arabuko-Sokoke Forest and Mida Creek, to educate the children and spread the conservation message. And for much needed Gede Ruins Tree Platform repairs which supports the Project.
ASSETS bursary Scheme - ASSETS is a community programme initiated by A Rocha Kenya with the overall goal being to conserve biodiversity and to increase benefits of the local community from sustainable eco-tourism activities in Mida Creek and Arabuko-Sokoke Forest.
Environmental Education and awareness -Environmental Education and awareness events for the beneficiary students and parents are held regularly.
Eco-tourism Projects -We have a hanging walk - way situated at Mida creek and a Tree Platform built on a Baobab tree in Gede Ruins monument. These facilities have played a big role in raising funds for the scheme over the years.
We are trying to raise funds for next year?s school fees together with the tree platform repairs.
