Imagine a child who has never held a book in his hands

Being about to read and write is essential to every child’s future, but in Kenya, nearly one in five children is illiterate. Education is the key to breaking the cycle of poverty and giving these children the skills they need to aim higher and go further.

Camp Ohana is addressing the literacy crisis with an ambitious project: we built the first
children’s library in Kenya.

In addition to providing access to thousands of books and other educational materials, the
library has become the hub for a range of educational programs to teach children of all ages how to read, write, and spell. The children also receive tutoring for math, science, and other school subjects.

The library project was launched early 2014 and completed in December 2015.

Your monthly micro-donation of just $5 can help us equip the library. Please donate now.
