Sustainability
AViD IGAs
AViD IGAs are activities we do specifically to enable us to stay in the business of impact with or without funding.
FARM
At AViD, we are so conscious of the need to be sustainable and scalable in all our programs. There are so many activities that we could do but if they have no potential to keep us in business, then they are not worth our try. Our farm not only feeds us and our students, butalso a source of revenue that facilitates our core education activities. In the farm, we have a variety of food, fruits and birds and we are soon introducing animals!
COTTAGES
AViD Cottages are being established to provide safe and convenient accommodation for our volunteers and visitors at an affordable fee. The revenue will also be utilised in developing our program further.
MEET THE DIRECTORS
A decade ago, Rehemah, a teenager then with a refreshingly vibrant outlook on life founded Avid (then known as Girlbe). At the time, motivated by her deep childhood emotional fractures, she was determined to support children in low income communities to figure out a way to solve their challenges by providing safe spaces in communities, mentorship and scholarships. Over time, she has been supported by numerous individuals to enable her vision of a society full of self sufficient individuals to become a reality. She now works alongside her friend Mubuya Dennis a professional footballer and a farmer both in practice and at heart.
