Youth Education
Education is everything in Kenya, and the best chance at opportunities out of poverty come when a child goes to school, however, the population of Kenya is very young, and even graduating from secondary school isn’t a guarantee. 100 Humanitarians International has sponsored 31 students in school, and 4 have graduated so far. Six will graduate in 2021.
