Sincere Gratitude and Exciting COCE News

By COCE Kenya | COCE Kenya Team

Dear Supporters and Friends of COCE,

Volunteerism and small-scale philanthropy are the lifeblood of our community library, and it is your generosity—month after month—that makes progress possible. While large institutions often fund massive projects, it is the steady commitment of donors like you that has kept our vision alive. We are deeply grateful to the many individuals who continue to give what they can, when they can. Your contributions don’t just fund a building; they fuel a movement rooted in shared values, community pride, and access to education.

The photo you see here is a dedicated group of volunteers who gathered at River Legacy in Arlington, TX for our most recent "Growing Literacy” walk/run—an inspiring event that raised awareness and rallied support for this cause. Initiatives like these, led by you, our volunteers and donors, are what truly move mountains. 

We’re thrilled to share that the library construction is moving along well. Thanks to your support, we will complete the tiling in June—a major milestone that brings us one step closer to opening our doors. The next stage is electrical wiring, and with your continued help, we’ll be ready to take it on. 

Every effort—every step, every dollar, every shared moment—brings us closer to a vibrant community space built by and for the people. Thank you for being the heart of this journey.

Warm Regards,

Collective for Orphan Care and Education (COCE) Team
