Kare4Kenya is a non-profit Non Governmental Development Organisation based in Malta working to help Kenyan children reach their potential while working with youths and parents to help themselves and build a better future. We form part of the Maltese NGDO Platform and we support the STOPOVERTY Campaign.
As Kare4Kenya we believe that education is a vital and essential factor that allows people to achieve economic independence, improve and protect their own and their family's health, and build and participate in society.
Kare4Kenya's mission is to improve the lives
of Kenyan children by providing
educational opportunities.
Children growing up without an education are destined only for unemployment, or at best, menial labour, for low wages and in very poor working conditions. The uneducated have little alternative, and it is through no fault of their own.
Education is the key component for the rehabilitation of Kenya and its people, communities cannot improve their situation before first learning how to, and given the means of progression, that is, knowledge and learning.
We aid development by working closely with Kenyan children, youths and their families to provide access to school and by helping to start income generating and community building projects. We recognise a great desire by the Kenyan people to progress independently and not just to be led, with many young people keen to learn, acquire, and utilise new skills to help build their future. Kare4Kenya focuses on supporting ninety children and their families in Kawangware on the outskirts of Nairobi with ongoing assessment and monitoring for improvement.
Our projects include:
-
Education and access to mainstream schools including providing uniforms, food, extra tuition, school outings, etc.
-
Health and medication for our children and their families
-
A parents' committee to empower the parents
-
A New NGO based in Kenya called Changamoto Kawangware - Challenge Kawangware to empower youths
