It was formed with the intention of helping children from deprived backgrounds in the countries of East Africa - Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Rwanda and Burundi - develop certain character traits that will help them survive and flourish in discouraging environments. In order for EACDT to operate successfully in Kenya, its trustees formed a Kenya charitable trust; The Foundation for Youth Cricket and Education in Kenya Charitable Trust [FYCEK], the trustees of which are listed below. Three of these, of which two are Kenyan, are resident in Kenya, and one, the EACDT Founding Trustee, is resident on the island of Jersey. FYCEK delivers in Kenya the Character Development Programme that EACDT has designed. It also contracts with its Kenyan employees and suppliers and deals with Kenya’s fiscal and regulatory authorities. EACDT, in its turn, funds FYCEK, and monitors its activities.
