ABCA welcomes the Harry Cohney Charitable Foundation as 2023 Patron of ABCA Kenya Operations

ABCA is thrilled to announce that thanks to an incredibly generous donation from the Harry Cohney Charitable Foundation ABCA Kenya Operations are fully funded for 2023.  

The trustees of the trust stated:

Harry Cohney was born in Fremantle WA in 1932, the youngest of five children of Dr Solomon and Mrs Bluma Cohney.  Having worked in a variety of jobs (travelling salesmen, firefighter, tram driver and fruiterer) he became a very successful publican and property investor.  Harry was a devoted Jew who was always willing to lend a hand to those in need.  His establishment of the Harry Cohney Charitable Foundation and his contribution of significant financial resources to its purposes represents his wish to provide for others for many years to come.  It is our hope that supporting the education of children in Kenya will give opportunities to those children and their families that they might not otherwise have had and lead to lifelong benefits for them and their descendants.
