KOP Warwick is now entering its third year, and after a fantastic 12 months that saw us beating our fundraising target – this year we hope it will be bigger and better than ever!

We shook buckets at train stations and city centres, had raffles and tea parties. We partied hard at KOPs and robbers, and had breakfast sales for those 8am lectures. Best of all we completed a mammoth 435km cycle, which this year is going nationwide!

All of our fundraising over the past year went directly to VIMA and after all our hard work we travelled out to Kisumu to see exactly where they spend it. We had a fantastic time meeting children benefiting from VIMA’s work and getting stuck in with many of the other projects KOP supports. From football (on the most enormous pitch ever!) with the Hovic boys, to teaching the handwashing song to children at Kunya primary school, and an eye-opening insight into healthcare in Kenya, it was 2 weeks that went far too fast.

We are really excited about KOP at Warwick this year and would love to hear from you if you want to get involved:
