2022:

• Recognizing the loss of all fund raising for Life Centre School due to the death of Pastor James Samo's father, K.E.E.F. stepped in to provide funding for the school's immediate and most critical needs beginning in October 2022, including paying teacher salaries and food for the students.

2023:

• The Kisumu Fund became a 501(c)(3) public charity incorporated in the state of Virginia.

• We continued to provide funding for teacher salaries and food for the students. 

• Assisted in negotiating a new one-year lease with the property owner, which gave K.E.E.F. the first right of refusal to purchase the land on which the school is located.  K.E.E.F. also began paying the monthly rent for the school.

• Provided funding for new equipment for the chemistry lab.

2024:

• We continued to provide funding for teacher salaries and food for the students, and purchased new schoolbooks for the children.

• The owner of the land on which the school operates announced its plans to sell the land, so K.E.E.F. executed an agreement to purchase the land. Without the purchase, the land would have been sold to developers and the school would have closed.

2025:

• We continued to provide funding for teacher salaries and food for the students.

• Following Kisumu government review of the land purchase agreement, K.E.E.F. became the owner of the property on which LCS is located.
