Education is the most valuable tool we can use against poverty

  • Become a Sponsor

    Sponsors have the incredible opportunity to support a student's educational journey, which may include three years of high school and one to four years of college. For those whose financial goals align differently, there is also the option to sponsor high school students exclusively.

    High school sponsorships are $450 per year, while college sponsorships are $900 per year, both of which cover essential school fees. Additional necessities such as uniforms, shoes, and transportation are funded through the generosity of donors contributing to our Vital Student Support Fund.

    Students share updates and photos, expressing their heartfelt gratitude in the sweetest ways. Our staff facilitates the exchange of letters and photos, making it easy for sponsors to connect with their students.

    Thank you for your unwavering support. You are not just changing lives—you are shaping brighter generations and building a legacy of hope.

Advancing Hope

High school in Kenya is not free. Fewer than 16% of families can afford school costs, forcing most students to drop out after 8th grade. Sponsorship allows top students to stay in school and work toward breaking cycles of poverty.

Kenya Keys targets first-generation students who are bright and motivated, matching them with sponsors who help cover expenses.

Sponsored Students

The young people we serve have one thing in common - the desire to learn. This desire is so strong, that they will choose to learn over food, over comfort, over any kind of relief of suffering that we are able to observe. They soak up learning like the rain parched land soaks up any hint of water.
