Rehema Elimu

What is Rehema Elimu?

Rehema Elimu means “Mercy Education” in Swahili. Through The Daily Bread Program IAMercy got to know hundreds of poor children in the Kawangware slum of Nairobi. Over time IAMercy began identifying some of the most severe cases. When financially possible IAMercy has committed to help children with their education who simply wouldn’t be able to afford it otherwise. We place these children in Rehema Elimu to help them get a basic education.

Formal Education (School fees, lunches, uniforms, etc.)

Over the years IAMercy has placed a number of children and youth from the Kawangware slum of Nairobi in formal education. As of 2023 IAMercy’s Rehema Elimu program has 21 children enrolled in school. IAMercy pays for the school fees, school uniforms, lunch fees, and for miscellaneous other items associated with school needs.
