Rijst
€6.00 – €60.00
In de meeste Maasai gezinnen is rijst een luxe product. Het wordt gegeten bij bepaalde feesten of ceremonies samen met vlees. Op onze school eten de kleuters elke vrijdag rijst met groentes en ook de zaterdagkinderen eten 1 keer in de 3 weken rijst met een groentesaus. Thuis eten de kinderen momenteel weinig rijst, dus wij vinden het belangrijk om dit wel elke week te koken. Waar je vroeger een kilo rijst kon kopen voor €0,60 is de prijs inmiddels gestegen tot €1,20 per kilo! Voor de school kopen we altijd grote zakken van 50 kilo rijst, zodat we er een aantal weken mee vooruit kunnen.

Shoes
All the children need two pairs of shoes to go to school: shoes for their school uniform and sport shoes. They will only wear the shoes when going to school, in order to make sure they last as long as possible. When one of the children has outgrown their shoes they will be passed on to one of the smaller children. With your purchase you can make sure that one of our children has proper shoes to go to school this year.
Food package
The Nanginyi Foundation sponsors families who do not have enough food to eat every day. It is important for the Maasai to eat well, as they perform hard physical labour and need a lot of energy. The Nanginyi Foundation sponsors food packages with rice, beans, maize/corn, tea, sugar, cooking oil and, when available, some vegetables and fruit. Our local coordinator will put together the food packages depending on the current food prices and availability. He will then deliver them to families in need. When you buy a food package in our webshop you can make sure that a Maasai family in need will get support.
Ondergoed
Aan het begin van het nieuwe schooljaar krijgen de kinderen onderbroeken en hemden van Stichting Nanginyi. Maasai kinderen dragen thuis in de boma geen ondergoed, maar voor de kinderen die naar school gaan vinden wij het belangrijk dat ze ondergoed dragen onder hun schooluniformen voor de hygiëne. Zo kunnen de kinderen ook zonder problemen fietsen, op het plein rond rennen, klimmen en koprollen.
Local nursery school
In 2018 the Nanginyi Foundation started to establish a local nursery school in the boma. Nine girls and Nine boys between 4 and 6 years old from different boma's in the neighbourhood are coming to the boma of local coordinator Mathayo 5 days a week to follow education. In this way we want to introduce education to the local community and show that it is also important for girls. The children will be taught in different subjects and sports and creativity will be part of the curriculum too. In the morning they will be provided with a breakfast (tea with sugar and milk and bread or porridge) and there will be fruits during the day. To keep the local nursery school running we need money for materials, the breakfast and to pay a contribution for the teacher. Every donation is therefore welcome to support our local nursery!
