Our Mission: Helping Children Break The Poverty Cycle

Our mission is to provide a first class education for the very deprived children in the Nairobi slums, from primary school through college or university. Our aim is for these children to break the poverty cycle and become established and productive citizens.

Our Approach: We sponsor over 400 pupils at three partner schools that provide a wonderful education and the pastoral care they need. We take on projects together with our Kenyan staff and trusted local partners.

We create better learning environments for our students and the community, such as building classrooms, setting up labs and libraries and providing computer equipment. We have personally known every local partner for many years, making sure your money is used you and we intended.
