Kenya
You can help with a donation today
Nearly 40% of people in Kenya live in poverty. This state significantly reduces their accessibility to the essentials, including nourishing food, clean water and fundamental education.
You have helped to:
- Provide meals to combat hunger
- Develop wells to provide safe water
- Support local schools to improve education
- and other aid as needed
Hunger, Thirst and Development Needs
Widespread poverty disproportionally affects Kenyan children.
Many are malnourished because families can’t afford food, while others suffer from cholera due to unsanitary water resources.
Schools lack basic resources like desks and pencils, which contribute to a poor educational experience for the few students who have the privilege of attending school instead of laboring to provide for their families.
According to the Global Hunger Index, Kenya’s hunger levels are categorized as serious and have worsened throughout the past 20 years.
Agricultural difficulties, including a lack of fresh rainfall, amplify the country’s already dire hunger situation and force approximately 30 percent of Kenyans to drink water from unclean resources, resulting in high amounts of water-borne illnesses.
