Pray along with us for the following requests
We receive requests from our international partners - projects that empower them to help meet the most basic needs of kids. These are put on the prayer list until God raises up the resources to meet the need - whether through Can Do Kids International or in another way.
ONE-TIME NEEDS:
KENYA - The second round of school fees is due in May. We are expecting the total to be around $5,000.
KENYA - We are asking God for $3,000 to purchase Bibles for schools that will be visited in June (300 Bibles @ $10 per Bible).
KENYA - Two of our sponsored families are in need of solar panels to generate electricity. The cost is $450 for each family.
KENYA - Our team was approached by a community who alerted them to a family in critical need. There are 10 in the household, 8 of whom are children. The children are malnourished and struggling and living in one small room with a dirt floor. Our CDK Kenya team is praying for $12,000 to build and furnish a house that will assist this family in getting back on their feet.
