Meet Reverend Evalyn Wakhusama founder of Nambale Magnet School in a community devastated by the HIV/AIDS crisis in rural western Kenya. Evalyn came to the US to pursue her MDiv at Yale University and pledged to change the lives of the children of Nambale by providing a top-notch education. All this in an area where many children are orphaned or otherwise vulnerable because of the lack of infrastructure and basic needs. Even the “best off” families live a subsistence life. The school is now in it’s 10th year having graduated 82 students on to high school, and is ever growing with a current enrollment of 415 students ages 3 to 15.
Evalyn and her team are striving towards self-sustainability for the school through farming and agriculture, providing milk, eggs and greens for the students as well as providing eggs to the community for sale. The school has recently acquired two and a half acres to house beehives behind Nambale Magnet School’s farm which will provide honey for sale — an important revenue source for the school. They need the right kind of plants around them which creates the wonderful symbiotic relationship of honey and fruit!
