Kelvin Loaf

Kids holding Kelvin Loaves

Kelvin Loaf is a KCH income generating project originally supported by Kelvinside Academy in Glasgow. Many people living in Kibera cannot afford a whole loaf priced at 20p, and bargain with vendors for half a loaf. The Kelvin Loaf is a half sized loaf which is priced at 10p and provides affordable bread for the poorest people in Nairobi.

There are currently 2000 Kelvin loaves baked every day which are not only sold to those who can afford them but are also used to feed the children at KCH and are distributed to other orphanages or destitute people in the city.

Kelvin loaf vouchers can be purchased in Scotland and Nairobi. Please see the ‘Support us’ page for Kelvin loaf voucher details.
