This project is among others completed this year under Carrefour’s Round Up Your Bill, including a KES 573,000 donation in food hampers to 450 households affected by the March-April-May floods in Mathare. Carrefour has also completed the installation of a KES 360,000 water harvesting system at Lutheran Church Special School for the Mentally Challenged in Kisumu.
In addition, the retailer also completed a KES 1.8 million renovation of a basketball court and skating rink at Shangilia Mtoto wa Afrika children’s home in Kangemi, Nairobi.
Since its inception in 2016, Round Up Your Bill has played a pivotal role in supporting various community projects and facilitating tangible improvements in local institutions in support of children and the elderly. In 2023 alone, Carrefour contributed over KES 15 million towards essential supplies and infrastructure for these vulnerable groups.
