1 in 3 children in Western Kenya cannot read a single word.

As we head towards the end of the financial year, your gift can help children learn, read and thrive. 

In rural western Kenya, classrooms are overcrowded, teachers are untrained and under-supported, and children are leaving school unable to read, leaving them disadvantaged for life. 

But, with your help, this can change. 

 

With improved teacher training, better literacy support and safer classrooms, children can gain the foundational skills they need to succeed at school and beyond. 

Your support this tax time will help train teachers, strengthen schools and help thousands of children learn to read with confidence.
