In 2009, Kilima Camp has decided to support Il Tolish Junior School, a local community based public primary school from Nursery to Class 3. There are now more than 330 children in this Masai school. Kilima Camp pays the salary of one teacher (since 2009). Theprimary school has been in operation since 2007. At that time, there was only 1 class – about 30 children. If you wish to help and support the school and the children, while visiting Kilima Camp, you can bring some pencils, English books or school supplies. You can also donate and each penny will make a big difference. Here is a list of items and needs.
