About Foundation Elimu Mount Elgon

The African word ‘Elimu’ means education. The Foundation of Elimu Mount Elgon is a non-profit organization with its aim being to offer financial support and material needs for projects that support the education and professional training in the Mount Elgon Region (a border area between Uganda and Kenya) in Kenya to the Mount Elgon Trust. Within the border area of Kenya and Uganda, in a desolated countryside territory with very poor infrastructure and 40 kilometers from the closest city of Kitale, is where the Dutch physician, Bea Andersen- Schipper, runs her practise. Besides her small, bustling clinic, Bea also heads an elementary school. The major need for any form of educational training for the local population was immediately apparent and therefore, in 1999, Bea set up a school in the area. The funding for Bea’s projects comes from both the Mount Elgon Trust and the foundation of Elimu Mount Elgon.
