Introduction
Empowering through Education
In the heart of Kenya's bustling capital, Nairobi, lies Kibera, one of the largest slums in Africa. Within its narrow streets and cramped living conditions, a pressing need for education emerges. Education in Kibera faces unique challenges, including limited access to quality schools, lack of resources, and overcrowded classrooms. Many families struggle to afford school fees, uniforms, and books, making education an unattainable dream for their children. Education is the key to breaking the cycle of poverty and unlocking a brighter future for the children and youth of Kibera.
Education has the power to transform lives. And that is where we come in.
Every child deserves the chance to dream, aspire, and achieve.
$600 per year pays for a student's school fees, uniforms, and nutritional needs. Education equips children with knowledge, skills, and confidence, enabling them to overcome adversity and create a better life for themselves and their community. By investing in education in Kibera, we can break down barriers and provide a pathway to a brighter future.
When you support the program, both you and your student will receive matching limited edition Stronger Together bracelets, handmade by our artisan partners in Kibera.
Sponsor a child today and you can change their life through education.
