Do the words “charity” and “fundraising” make you shiver at the thought of all the effort? With Vision Africa, you don’t even have to leave your computer to help out or to find out all the information you need about us. In order to reach out to as many people as possible and to provide simple ways of fundraising, Vision Africa is trying to make the most of technology.

- If you’re feeling a bit more active and planning to walk/run/swim/cycle/climb a mountain/stay silent to raise funds, make sure you set up your own fundraising page on JustGiving by visiting http://www.justgiving.com/visionafrica/raisemoney. Then let us know about it and we can promote it for you on the website and Facebook group.
So you see, there are ways that you can be supporting us without any effort at all. Every penny counts so please take a look at these sites and together we can help make a difference to the lives of children in Kenya, often with much less effort than we realise.
