History of the Friends of Kadzinuni
The Friends was formed in February 2003 following a 5-year period of informal support
from the Seller Family and Friends. The connection with Kadzinuni started in 1998.
when The Seller Family became friends with Alex Mwarome Munga whilst on holiday in
Mombasa. Kadzinuni is his home village and the family became involved because they
had such a wonderful holiday and wanted to try and put something back into Kenya.
Nic & Elaine had for many years undertaken voluntary work in education and other
fields in the UK, but Kadzinuni quickly became a life changing experience which has
led to the substantial improvement of the primary school at Kadzinuni, building a
healthcare clinic and other community facilities. The Friends has been a catalyst
for the local Kadzinuni people who have now formed a vibrant self-help group and
Micro-finance based small businesses for the local ladies.
Nic says “We want Kadzinuni to become a self-sufficient wealth creating community,
change like this can take a long time, we are trying to accelerate this development
for them”.
