Our work
What we do in Siaya
Our programmes meet immediate needs while creating pathways to independence. Join our mission to change lives, one child at a time.
Four programmes, one mission
Education, mentorship, farming and enterprise skills - each programme reinforces the others.
Children's education
Sponsoring a child costs 12,000 KES - around €100 or $120 a year. We currently support 16 secondary school students.

Food & farming
We are turning farming into income of our own. Growing and selling fresh vegetables helps fund students' school fees and reduces our dependence on donations, while students gain practical experience in agriculture, entrepreneurship and financial management. Every harvest moves us closer to programmes sustained by income we generate, not donations alone.

Entrepreneurship
Through our partnership with Aflatoun, students learn financial literacy, saving, budgeting and how to plan and run a small social enterprise. Alongside growing and selling produce and building digital skills, they gain the confidence to create opportunities of their own after school.
