The Maasai increasingly see the value and importance of education. Their access to education lags due to poverty and other factors out of our people's control. We address these obstacles by supporting local schools and offering educational scholarships.
For many in our communities, it is a struggle to keep their children in school through grade 8. By providing financial support and addressing the social issues that keep students out of school, we believe that a quality education can be obtained by all.
The Osupuko region is a remote, low-income and low population density area. The performance and standards of schools here are less than ideal for learning. By engaging the community, providing school supplies and supporting the construction of quality facilities, we are building a better future for our children.
Schools in our rural communities have not had a great track record in being able to supply quality education. The Kenyan school system has a good cirriculum so with a little additional help from AfricaHope, schools in the Osupuko division have shown great improvement in a short amout of time. We strive to give our children an opportunity to achieve their dreams in spite of their background.
The gift of education not only brings transformation to a child's life, but sets them and their community up for a brighter future. Join us in providing the incredible gift of education.
