At Karibuni Children we believe in equipping communities with the knowledge, skills and tools to tackle the root causes of poverty and bring about lasting change themselves. We partner with locally run projects to support children, who may not otherwise receive an education, to go to school. The projects we partner with support children from some of the poorest of the poor families in Kenya to attend pre-primary, primary and secondary school. But we don’t want to see a child’s educational potential stopping at the end of secondary school. By signing up to sponsor a student through their tertiary education, you help us to make sure that doesn’t happen. 

​

With the help of people like you, we support a growing number of students through tertiary education. We look at each student’s circumstances individually and work as a team with their family, to ensure all education costs are covered. We look to the family to cover accommodation and feeding costs (and work closely with them to ensure this is viable) whilst we take care of the costs of fees and laptops. Rather than if all costs were covered by Karibuni, this approach gives a sense of ownership and dignity to the family, and the student can concentrate on learning and preparing for their future career without the distraction of financial worries.
