School RenovationsMany schools in Kenya still lack water resources, sanitation facilities, habitable classrooms, even desks and teaching materials.

Our projects help schools:

  • Build toilets to meet government sanitation standards.
  • Construct classrooms, repair roofs and dilapidated blackboards.
  • Install rain water harvesting systems.
  • Construct playgrounds with swings and slides where kids can be kids.

Here's how it works

  • We accept a new candidate school based on the amount of transparency, ownership and hard work the school and community is willing to put forward.
  • We work with the schools to develop a three-phase grant model which is a series of projects that are designed to create a holistic improvement in the lives of the child students, then…
  • We surround the schools in a flurry of projects that leave the learning environment dramatically improved, with childrensʼ lives made happier and easier.
