The Red Rubber Ball’s 100 Club

We have also made another donation to the The Red Rubber Ball’s 100 Club that works with young children in Kenya. Our donation will help them open more clubs in other areas including rural villages. The project keeps young kids off the streets of Nairobi...

The project keeps young kids off the streets of Nairobi in the Kibera slums. We teach them to ride a bike, how to maintain their bikes, then take them on rides at weekends and in school holidays.

The only rule is that children must attend school if they are to join the club.

Attendance has increased; children have formed new friends; they are staying out of trouble and away from drugs, gangs, glue sniffing, crime etc. They are learning new skills, have learned to share and work together. And they’re having fun.

The Red Rubber Ball Foundation

GM Developments are proud to be a part of the Red Rubber Ball Foundation’s 100 Club, which gives children and community leaders in the poorest parts of Kenya the chance to escape poverty. Donations from the 100 Club have helped to cover all travel, accommodation and venue costs for the foundation’s 2014 ‘Anything is Possible’ workshop, with 62 sponsored children in Nairobi, and enabled 15 young Kenyans to take part in ‘Mpango Kiongozi’ – the Leaders Challenge – to climb Kilimanjaro. Since 2016, The 100 Club has allowed the foundation to build a fund to offer interest-free, but repayable, student loans so that sponsored students can continue their studies on to university and college.
