Kids for Peace School of Kenya

Kids for Peace School of Kenya is in the remote village of Mikei. The Kids for Peace community has been proudly supporting the Mikei community for the past 11 years!

 

In 2016, through our Kind Coins for Kenya Campaign and with the help of hundreds of caring students across the country, we built a brand new school! Over the years, through our volunteer trips, we brought solar electricity to the school, designed a playground, built a school kitchen and even dug a deep water well for the entire community. 

 

We are excited to share that the school is expanding to offer full primary school education for 250 children, ages 3-10.

Please help us sponsor all 250 children by March 31, 2024.  Whether you sponsor a student for yourself or gift a sponsorship for birthdays or holidays, you will forever change a life!

For only $50, you can provide your Rafiki Amani with half their school tuition, a new uniform, breakfast, and lunch for one year!

Why only half the tuition?


The school is working to support the children and the community by fostering
strong community participation and pride in education. Providing ½ the tuition
lets our families be partners with the Kenyan families to support their desire to
educate their children by making it affordable.​

We are thrilled to share that all Kenyan students have been sponsored thanks to the support of the generous students
and individuals below!
