Resumen
Marimanti Girls School was in need of a new sanitation block and RIDEP Kenya decided to help raise the necessary funds locally. A joint committee was formed, that identified various donor groups and developed strategies to involve them. A series of activities in the community (goat eating parties, harambee) produced good results, while the parents also contributed their fair share. RIDEP organisation and staff contributed too, while RIDEP moreover mobilised its network of stakeholders, even as far as Meru and Nairobi. Much attention was given to publicity. The events were announced on posters, banners and leaflets.The beneficiaries themselves explained the need for the project in the local churches.
Consejos y lecciones aprendidas
Required resources are available within the community, but they are seldom tapped.
If people are mobilised they can help solve their own problems and be part of the solution.
Don´t be put off by the challenges at the start, but solve the problems as you go along and be consistent.

RIDEP mobilised resources from their networks including opinion leaders and people from the community working in bigger towns like Meru and Nairobi.
2. The committee and school administration were able to identify guests who would make significant contributions during the planned public fundraiser commonly known as ´harambee´.
3. Committee and stakeholders attracted potential donors through goat eating parties, where donors would make their contributions after a good meal.
4. Creating awareness through publication on posters, banners and leaflets helped with popularising the goat eating parties and the main fundraiser.

This successful campaign made RIDEP and the community realise that local resources to solve local problems are often available. Already a second fundraiser has been organised to fund the construction of classrooms in another school.
