Thank you for the encouragement and contributions this year!
And a special thanks to the volunteers who help with so much throughout the organization
Kenyan staff works tirelessly keeping track of the 381currently enrolled students! They help students problem-solve, which has been a bigger job than usual with all they currently face!

Other programs and services reach hundreds and hundreds of Kenyan lives throughout the year.
These include non-formal education for adults, Ndohivyo special needs school, Save Our Sisters/Save Our Brothers, Usalama, Vital Student Support, mentorships, internships, library books, computers, and infrastructure projects.
