Feeding Centre
In response to the appeal to help victims of drought in 1997, the organization opened Children's feeding centers in Tana River District. These centers were initially based in Madogo, Mororo, Sombo, Mulanjo, Adele, Maramtu, Sala and Asako villages. The first two are the only ones currently in operation, as the others were closed down due to lack of funds.
The centers namely Madogo, and Mororo currently cater for over 400-500 children, who are provided with one meal a day, and in addition the children also benefit from the nursery school education provided by the local teachers.
This programme is currently not in operation due to lack of finances. In order to restart the programme,

The 13 students sponsored are from Merti division, Isiolo District, 12 from Garbatulla Division, Isiolo District and one from Nairobi.
The annual cost of KShs. 498,050.00 is recurrent once students are approved for sponsorship and qualify by excelling in their studies then we are bound to continue sponsoring them until they complete their secondary education.
A one-time payment of Kshs. 24,700.00 for 3 other students, one in secondary and two in primary schools was made during the year 2000.
in the year 2001 a similar number of students were sponsored.
In year 2002, the focus shifted to sending the students to colleges, e.g. Islamic Teachers Training College in mombasa and upto year 2004, 12 students have since graduated and are teaching in various Primary schools through out the country.
A number of students are still being sponsored at Thika College of Shariah and other colleges. But the numbers are limited due to lack of adequate finances.

Irrigation Pump
Tana River district , has been blessed with the River Tana, although the annual rainfall is well below average, food crops can be grown all year round. To reduce poverty in the area, we commissioned an Irrigation Water Pump, for the community in Nanigi, Tana River.
This pump shall serve over 200 acres, and the local populace shall greatly benefit for the crops grown, and thus this will reduce their dependency on others for their basic necessities.
