Project 1 Tenderfoot - Project history
Esther Waimi
The Tenderfoot self help school was originally 8 street children being fed, clothed and taught in a corrugated iron shack in a slum on the outskirts of Nairobi.
Through the sheer hard work and determination of Esther Wamai, now the schools head teacher, Tenderfoot gradually grew into a functioning primary school for the Kangemi slum children.
We were first made aware of the project by an official from Sussex University who told us about Tenerfoots desire to expand the school so that more children could have a chance of an education.
We visited the school in 2005 and 2006 to investigate how passingiton could help Esther carry on the great work she was doing....
