Mission Statement

To provide resources and support for the benefit of women, children and youth through education and training in the communities of Naivasha District of Kenya.

Description

Our Executive Director had a dream 5 1/2 years ago to build a high school for girls in Naivasha, Kenya. What started as a vacant filed is now a completed and "complete" school - Saint Francis Girls School. It has 8 classrooms, 2 science labs, computer lab, staff workrooms / offices, staff housing for 6 , dorms/kitchen/dining hall/infirmary for 400 students. Two short term projects aimed at reducing operating expenses are to install solar/wind electrical generating system; drill bore hole [well] to supplement the rain water collection cisterns. We will also expand out scholarship program of providing school fees, tuition, supplies & uniforms for high school boys and girls as well as post-secondary. We'll also increase support for Mji Wa Neema children's home.
