Girls dancing in a Harambee in Ikutha village for take money for the people with AIDS. Harambee is Swahili for “all pull together”. We would like you to join us, pulling together, to help the street children of Kenya. Thousands of children live on the streets after being orphaned by diseases like AIDS or because their parents are abusive or unaxvble to care for them. Street children are vulnerable. They have no identity and often have to scavenge through rubbish tips for food. Harambee is a Kenyan tradition of community self-help events, fundraising or development activities. Harambee literally means "all pull together" in Swahili, and is also the official motto of Kenya and appears on its coat of arms. Harambee events may range from informal affairs lasting a few hours, in which invitations are spread by word of mouth, to formal, multi-day events advertised in newspapers. These events have long been important in parts of East Africa, as ways to build and maintain communities.
