The conception of the Rainbow Kidz charity has been the brain-child of Mary Khan. She was inspired to take action after experiencing first hand, the deprived and destitute conditions children have to endure, after spending a year working at an orphanage in Grahamstown when she was only 19. Along with the help of her husband Paul (co-founder), she dedicates her spare time to organise various fund-raising events for specific projects.

Rainbow Kidz is a fledgling charity set up and run by ordinary people with limited resources, but great aspirations. Our approach is simple but structured: we run the charity by setting up projects for specific purposes. The ultimate aim is to initiate projects that improve the lives of children and the wider community in Grahamstown, South Africa.

Our very first project is ambitious but we believe, very attainable. We have some great backing and we have managed to establish some very useful local government contacts in Grahamstown to realise our goal. Find out more about our current project by clicking on the link below . . .
