How #educate60 became #educate107

We want to thank each and every person who contributed to educate Kenyan high school students for the 2020 school year! Kenya’s school year is from January to December, so thank you for helping us to start their year off right! It is impossible to overstate the importance of education.  It’s the key to opportunity and a crucial first step towards breaking cycles of poverty. This is a game changer for these kiddos and on behalf of them we thank you!

This year we decided to change our program a little bit, based on feedback that we received from parents, school administrators, and students. We created a new application process to help us ensure that we are getting help to the students who need it the most. We also opened up eligibility for our scholarships to students in three different area schools. We are excited to announce that we were able to give partial scholarships to 107 Kenyan students!!! That is 107 high school students who are in school today because of YOU! Thank you so much for your support!

We appreciate our donors and we also appreciate our Kenyan partners who make this all possible. Without our Kenyan Country Director and Co-Founder of the JCO Children’s Home, Juanita Opot, nothing we have done in Sirembe over the last 13 years would have been possible.  Her wisdom, leadership, and tireless work on the ground every single day are indispensable to Restore Humanity’s impact in this community. We are also deeply thankful for the Principal of Sirembe Secondary School, Mr. Henry Airo. He is an incredible Principal and teacher and he goes above and beyond for his students. We also want to thank the leadership of Malunga & Ndegwe Secondary Schools. 

We are a Global Team and a Global Family and if you have supported our work in any way, you are a part of this family! We thank you all for your support and for donating to help to send 107 kids to school! Education can completely change the trajectory of their lives, so thank you for making that possible.
