Jobs

Imagine if you never had the chance to go to high school?

This is the reality for most Kenyan students born into low income families.

EDUCATE A STUDENT

Income

Many Kenyan parents work hard to earn $2-$3 a day.

This might provide food and shelter for their children but often leaves nothing for education. As a result 43% of Kenyan youth never finish high school.

from our communities' lowest income families, children with the greatest potential to lift themselves out of poverty- if just given the chance.
