A UK charity working in the Maasai areas of Kenya helping families out of poverty through education, health and local clean water and by assisting people to become more economically active.  Helping Kenya and Africa help itself is our main objective.

We are a team of volunteers with no salaries or costs thus 100% of monies we receive go to the projects in Kenya. Nothing is used for any UK expenses.

Osiligi – the Maasai word for ‘hope’ – is the Charity’s objective of providing hope to this community.

Why was the charity started?

The charity was started to help the Osiligi Maasai Warriors’ community in Southern Kenya. Most of the Charity’s projects are in the  100 square miles  around the Warriors’ community, but some, such as the pump repair project are across Kenya. The Warriors tour the UK yearly performing their songs,  tribal ceremonies and educating people about their community.

Projects for 2018

• Supporting the cost of an orphanage at the school for the many orphans and girls at risk.
• Subsidising the clinic  so that many more from the community can access health care at a very low cost.
• Repairing 100 – 150 of other charities’ broken water pumps. (Dec 2017, 400 pumps repaired so far)
• Sponsoring children through primary education – 25 new sponsors required for January 2019. 
• Building six 1 acre agriculture ‘allotment’ plots with solar powered bore-hole .
• A  toilet for clinic and school visitors.
• Raise funds to build additional teachers’ accommodation.
