Logo Competition

The competition has now ended, and the winning logo has been selected.  Many thanks to all who submitted designs.  Our new logo contains:

• the colours from the Kenyan flag - these colours also represent the landscape colours of the country throughout the day

• a big golden sun as the lead image as this suggests the warmth of the Kenyan people and also emphasises God's protection over the land and it's people.

• clenched hands in the foreground to signify the relationship that the Rafiki Trust creates in assisting the education of poor and orphaned children in Kenya.

MCW Rafiki Trust

Rafiki is Swahili for "Friend" and it was thought appropriate that this was combined with the originating Methodist Circuit of Wimbledon, to form the title of the trust, namely the "MCW Rafiki Trust". The objectives of the trust can be viewed in the "About Us" section.

We are currently supporting the Jambo Sana project in Kenya.  Details of this project can be found on the Projects page.  We have recently received reports and interviews from the project which can be viewed on our News page.

Fundraising / Partnerships

We are constantly fundraising and all donations are gratefully received.  As a church or a group you could adopt this as your overseas project. As a family you could be paired with a family in that village for mutual partnership. As a school you could adopt the school department and identify with it.  Please contact us if you would like to make a donation (all cheques should be made out to "MCW Rafiki Trust").

Our site is frequently updated to incorporate all the latest news. Please check back regularly to see the progress being made and the ways in which you may be able to help. You can contact us via the online form in the "Contact Us" section.
