The Greater Lansing UNA, multiple partners and individuals are combining efforts to raise $30,000 this year to help UNHCR fund a classroom for children in Horseed Primary School in Kakuma Refugee Camp in western Kenya. The camp has over 75,000 children, half of whom do not have access to a school. Over $9,000 has been donated since the beginning of the fundraising campaign last October. Please help us reach our goal by donating today!
