Tom Wambulwa, Director

“We might not be able to change the lives of all children in the world, but we can change the world of each child at time. It is not a one-time moment but a journey we walk together with the child, their family, and community. Over time, we see children grow into young adults who believe in their worth and are equipped to build stable, hopeful lives.”

2.2 Million

Children Live in Severe Poverty

30% of the Kenyan population lives on less than $2 a day.

70%

Children living in slum communities do not attend school

In Nairobi alone, 70% of the population lives in slum communities.

35 Million

Kenyans lack access to basic health care

Even the basics, like wellness checks, immunizations, and dental are often out of reach.

High School Education

Out of reach for Kenyan students

The cost of secondary school is ten to twenty times more than the monthly income of most rural Kenyan families, making higher education out of reach for children.

Our Transformational Approach

In Kenya, our local team invests in five programs that walk alongside children, young adults, and families, focusing on education, physical wellbeing, social-emotional growth, and spiritual support. Our team meets children and families where they are—in their communities, honoring their stories, and building hope for their futures.

EDUCATION

Learning goes beyond the classroom. Our local educators and mentors walk alongside children-building knowledge, life skills, and hope in the places they call home.

PHYSICAL WELLBEING

Meeting essential physical needs removes barriers to learning, and allows children to focus, grow, and succeed in school and life.

SOCIAL-EMOTIONAL GROWTH

Through supportive relationships, education, and professional support, children experience safety, find healing, and build resilience.

SPIRITUAL SUPPORT

Grounded in compassion, children are invited to know and experience the unconditional love of God.
