Drilling a water well in Lodwar, Kenya

Giving Tuesday Update: Clean Water in Lodwar

There are three things in Lodwar, Kenya that are always certain: It’s always hot. It’s always dry. It’s ALWAYS in need of clean, drinkable water. While there’s not much you or I could ever change about mother nature, you DID do something about what you could change. Last year on Giving Tuesday you decided to make a change in our world and bring clean water to orphans & widows living in Lodwar, Kenya. Because of your support, drilling was able to start in early February and 30 days later, it was complete! 100ft below the sandy, dry earth lays fresh, Appreciation, News

Widowed with four children, this determined woman from the Emmanuel Kinship in Kenya built up her own small business to feed her kids.

This Widow’s Love For Her Kids Kept Her Moving Forward

Widows know the pain of tremendous loss. Death completely shatters the life they once knew, and they’re left alone to pick up the pieces. But sometimes they use that pain and suffering as a catalyst for ambition. One woman in the Emmanuel Kinship Project community in Kenya did just that.

So instead of giving up with this heavy burden on her shoulders, she turned things around. Community

Do you remember what it was like being a high schooler? Juggling homework, clubs, family, friends, girlfriends, boyfriends, and still trying to make time to sleep. Then waking up early the next day to do it all over again! High school was your life. It was difficult to look beyond those four walls. But one high school club is doing just that: looking beyond their classroom and into a culture half way across the world. Erik Seyring, a Social Science teacher at Prairie Ridge High School in Illinois, is working together with Kinship United and our Kenyan Partners to spearhead Education, News

Happy Valentine's Day from Africa!

“Siku ya furaha ya wapendanao”: Happy Valentine’s Day!

This Valentine’s Day is a little different than most that I’ve had before. Why? Because this year my Valentine’s Day is happening almost 10 hours before most of yours! And it’s happening in Uganda! Myself and a couple other Kinship United team members have been visiting Kinship Projects and meeting the beautiful children you’re helping in both Kenya & Uganda for the past two weeks. And let me tell you, the love they have for God and especially the love they have for you is something fierce. I felt it the moment I stepped into the Geta Kinship Project. These News

5 Ways You Can Help Refugees RIGHT NOW

Prov 31:8-9 “Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves; ensure justice for those being crushed. Yes, speak up for the poor and helpless, and see that they get justice.” If you’re reading this, you must have a big heart for refugees. God’s heart aches for refugees too. That’s why He tells us countless times in His Word to care for the oppressed: orphans, widows, and refugees. Feed them! Clothe them! Do not abandon them! Remember them! Over 35 million people are without home or country around the world today. And so few of them will ever have the News
