In November 2025, a devastating fire swept through the South B slum in Nairobi, destroying hundreds of homes and businesses and forever changing the lives of countless families.

The fire reached the grounds surrounding REM South B School and caused significant damage to our facilities. By God's grace, however, the main school structure remained standing.

As our community worked together to recover and rebuild, an unexpected opportunity emerged.

Land adjacent to the school became available, creating a rare chance to expand our campus and serve even more children in one of Nairobi's most vulnerable communities.

What began as a tragedy has opened the door to hope.

For years, REM South B has provided education, stability, discipleship, and opportunity to children living in difficult circumstances. With additional classrooms and expanded facilities, we can welcome more students, reduce overcrowding, and continue investing in the next generation of leaders.

The Expansion

The new addition will transform REM South B from a school that is stretched beyond capacity into a campus equipped to meet the growing needs of the community.

The expansion includes:

• Three new classrooms to serve additional students.
• A large multi-purpose hall and stage for school assemblies, church services, community gatherings, and student programs.
• Expanded office and administrative space.
• Additional restroom facilities and improved circulation throughout the building.
• A larger dining area to serve students more efficiently.
• Additional storage and support spaces to better serve the school community.

This expansion represents more than bricks and concrete.

It means:

• More children receiving a quality education.
• More students hearing the Gospel.
• More families experiencing hope and opportunity.
• A stronger and more resilient South B community.

Building in Faith

Construction is already underway.

One of the beautiful realities of ministry partnerships in Kenya is the trust that has been built over many years of serving faithfully together. Local builders have agreed to begin work before all of the funds have been raised, trusting our reputation and commitment to fulfill our obligations as support comes in.

Their faith in this mission has allowed progress to begin immediately rather than waiting months or years for funding to be secured.

Now we have the opportunity to stand alongside them and finish what has already begun!

Our Goal

The total cost to complete the South B expansion is $57,757 USD.

Every dollar given moves this project closer to completion and creates space for future generations of students to learn, grow, and thrive.

The fire may have changed the landscape of the neighborhood, but it did not destroy the vision.

Together, we can help South B rise stronger than before.

Campaign Goal: $57,757

Help us turn tragedy into opportunity and build a future filled with hope for the children of South B.
