Story

The Thunder Foundation has opened a school in Nairobi for 150 of the poorest children, 35 of them are special needs children. Offering them Free Education, Food and Health Care. We also run a Football Academy for 160 homeless street children. Our founder, Raad Swais, a P.E.Teacher from East Sussex, moved to Nairobi in 2012 to teach at a private school. He was so appalled by the conditions in the slums he decided that he must try and help. Our first school opened January 2014 with 22 hand picked children, (from the poorest families.) The advantage of our charity is that Raad runs all our projects first hand. He still works full time at the private school but all his spare time is for The Thunder Foundation. Team Thunder fund raise in the UK and every penny we raise is spent on our projects in Nairobi.
