Project Description and Impact

Web Designer & Communications Experteer

Children in the school compound

We are a community based education school/organization that works to uplift the living standard of the children within the remote part of western Kenya.

Our program balances the traditional and the innovative, emphasizing excellence in academics and a thorough exposure to the arts, environment, and community development. We teach children to think creatively, read critically and reason logically, stressing the value of both individual learning and collaboration. We are committed to diversity, teaching students to be inclusive and to respect themselves and others as well as integrating our programs to meet the community needs.
