As a result of our recent trip to Kenya, we created some new video's - please check them out below!
What a wonderful time we had catching up with long time students and meeting our new additions! We presented a series of workshops for everyone in both Nairobi and the Amboseli region - with guest speakers (who are successful, educated Maasai) that spoke of their journey with education, career, business and entrepreneurship.
The children had an open forum to ask questions, discuss issues and challenges and make plans for their future. The older students toured three different Universities in Nairobi with Milton, Cynthia and Nelly giving them great counsel on what to expect.
We also evaluated and worked with the younger ones; to determine their overall progress since our last visit, make special arrangements as needed and encourage their efforts at school. Overall - the trip was a huge success and we were excited to see firsthand the impact of our efforts.
ACF feels it's vital to provide counseling and mentorship for these students if they are to succeed. Our objective is not to simply get them through school; rather we want to ensure they are able to pursue a chosen career, obtain a job or start a viable business. These students will be leaders within their communities - bringing about change, advancement and a brighter future for all!

We did it! With the help of many generous folks we hit our $10,000 goal and have received the same amount in matching funds. Much appreciation goes to the couple that initiated this campaign - and everyone that contributed thereafter. These dollars will go such a long way in Kenya - we are ever so grateful!

Post-secondary education is a must to breaking the cycle of poverty for these youth and bringing about real change. Other key components are career counseling, mentorship and future job placement. It is vital that we raise the money to cover these additional costs for our students going to university.

While Kenya is still struggling with getting their population vaccinated, the kids have thankfully returned to school! Safety measures include sitting apart in classrooms, masks and hand sanitization.
Our months of not being able to attend, our students were quite excited to begin classes again.

Empowering Our Students with Technology
Computer literacy is difficult for our students; even if they could somehow afford a computer, they lack electricity and internet in their homes. The Technology Empowerment Program is designed to teach students basic IT skills and programs. ACF recently sent two of their students to this course.
