Kenyan Educationist
Born
in 1933 in Eldoret, Kenya Griffin was inspired by the idea of a model
academic institution where destitute boys could acquire education. In 1959 together with the late Geoffrey Gatama Geturo and Joseph Kamiru Gikubu they founded the Starehe Boy’s Centre.
Starehe, which started from 2 tin huts accommodating 17 orphans grew to
be a Premier school in the country and Africa at large, offering free
education to about 1000 orphans.
