SHARE Africa: Our Lady of Orore Boarding School

They had 480 children enrolled in 2009 of which 37 were from SHARE. It is a highly competitive school with acceptance ratio of 25%.

Our Lady of Orore provides the best education our orphans can get while at the same time creating a culture of support and giving.

Below is a slide show of the school grounds, buildings, and classrooms.

During a visit in December 2009, we met with all the children one on one and gave out the engineering firm of O’Brien & Gere and Mr. Mike Kirmse (former professional soccer player in Syracuse, New York) supplied soccer balls.

Currently, the top student at the school is our own SHARE’s Syprose, who is considered such a high potential that there is a hope for her to get into the best university in Kenya, on scholarship! We are fortunate that so many of our orphans met the criteria to be admitted to this wonderful school.
