Testimonials
“As a mother, nothing hurts more than seeing your children full of potential but lacking the means to reach it. EDU-Initiative Kenya changed that for our family. When they sponsored two of my children, it was more than just support it was hope, dignity, and a future restored. But what means the most is that they didn’t stop with my children they saw me, too. They are signing me up for their Entrepreneurial Development Program to help me grow my small business so I can support my family fully and become independent in the long run. EDU-Initiative is not just investing in education they are building whole families, whole futures. I am proud to walk this journey with them”

“Edu Initiative Kenya has supported three bright students from the school where I teach .students who were frequently sent home due to lack of school fees and had begun to lose hope. For the past year, they have remained in school, consistently attending classes and participating fully in all school activities. Their academic performance has improved tremendously—they are truly thriving. You can even see it in their faces the confidence, the joy. And you can see the deep gratefulness in their parents’ eyes as well. These students come from very vulnerable families, and this support has been nothing short of life-changing. We are deeply thankful .”
