Where It Began: Looms for Classrooms
Where It Began: Looms for Classrooms
The Kever Foundation's spirit was at work long before the foundation existed. At just eight years old, Sarah Kever, now one of the Foundation's directors, started Looms for Classrooms, a campaign to raise funds for White Rose Academy in Mtwapa, Kenya, so its students could have desks and chairs to learn at.
Sarah presented the donation to Madame Saumu Mruu of White Rose Academy, watched by her family and the school's students. She had raised about $2,000 at her elementary school in Brampton, and her effort was featured in Coastweek, the Mombasa newspaper, in a piece titled "Sarah's Generous Donation." The money helped the school purchase books, tables, stools and other equipment its students needed.
That belief, that no child's education should wait for want of a desk, is at the heart of the Kever Foundation today.
