SPOTLIGHT PROJECT: Masaka Community Farm
Spotlight Project
Obtaining and drinking safe water in Africa is an enormous challenge, which
is why our focus project is installing water catchment systems to significantly
impact the Masaka farming community. Rainwater catchment units are affordable,
durable and relatively easy to construct. By installing these systems, we help to
provide a source of clean water to dozens of families, giving them the ability to
grow enough food to feed their families and provide a source of income that will
ultimately result in economic independence.

SPOTLIGHT PROJECT: The Great Rift Valley School
The youth of East Africa are poised to shape the future of their continent.
Education is the key to their success, yet they are often hindered by a lack
of learning resources and overcrowded classrooms. A rapidly growing
population of orphaned children faces a unique and harrowing set of
challenges. Our project partners with the teachers, caretakers, students and
orphans of two rural Kenyan villages. We work to expand their learning and
living centers, bring much needed school supplies, and assist in teaching
English and their daily curriculum. As we empower the youth of East Africa,
we too help shape the future of this beautiful continent.
