Where do Kids League Kenya work?

We are focused on the Kongowea community in Mombasa, Kenya. We work with local schools to identify students leaving their free education and with potential to continue their education, but without the family funding to do this. Find out more about Where we work.

What is the target of Kids League Kenya?

We have a robust selection process for choosing students who live in the impoverished coastal community of Kongowea in Mombasa, Kenya. We identify students with potential through our partner schools and offer scholarships to those that would not be able to afford school beyond a primary level.

What levels of education does Kids League Kenya support?

We assist students throughout their academic careers, from secondary school through college. We also give allowances for students in universities as long as they meet predetermined accomplishment levels.

Can I come to Kenya and volunteer?

We welcome volunteers to help us to drive forward our charity.
As our work locally is driven by our team on the ground in Kongowea, building trust and relationships with the community, we look for our volunteers to help in other ways than visiting.
