Village Impact partners with vulnerable communities and local governments to build schools in conflict-affected communities in rural Kenya. But this is only the beginning!
They also provide the schools with essentials like desks and chalkboards, textbooks, science labs and school libraries, water and sanitation systems, kitchens, school gardens and teacher accommodations.
They also hire psychosocial counselling staff, who provide one-on-one and group counselling sessions to students at many schools. Students in Village Impact partner schools enjoy world-expanding experiences like field trips, student conferences and summer camps that help young people build the mindset and skills they need to develop their businesses and lift themselves out of poverty.
In addition, they provide access to professional development opportunities for teachers and administrators. All their projects are community-driven and, once completed, each school is community-owned and government-supported.
With its significant lack of infrastructure, isolated internally displaced people communities face an acute need for school buildings. Either there are no schools at all, or existing make-shift buildings are in such a poor state of repair that they are uninhabitable in the rainy season and dangerously close to collapse.
In January 2003, Kenya’s newly-elected Kibaki government made primary education free. While communities welcomed this announcement, the government and local infrastructures are still struggling to catch up.
There are still nearly 4,000 primary and approximately 65,000 secondary school-age children out of school in the areas in which we work.
Village Impact leverages education and business training to create opportunities for children, their families and their communities to realize positive transformation. This is one of the most effective ways to break the cycle of poverty for the long term.

Children International gives children in poverty the tools they need to create brighter futures for themselves and their communities. With the support of donors and sponsors, children and youth gain the skills and confidence they need to create promising futures free from poverty.
These facts are staggering and may seem like insurmountable challenges with no resolution.
While the path out of poverty is not an easy one, when you put these issues into perspective, you can see how all of us working together can do our part to break the cycle of poverty for this generation and the next.
Small changes add up.
Putting poverty in perspective allows us to see how global problems can be solved when we all do our part. Your sponsorship or gift provides children access to educational, health care and dental programs while also funding empowerment and employment initiatives, and building community centers. Together, we can give children the chance to envision a better future and create lasting change for their communities.
A $1,000 donation would allow Children International to support one student for more than 2.5 years or 27 students for one month.
A $10,000 donation would allow Children International to support two student for 12 years of education or 275+ students for one month of education.
We connect people around the world in the fight to end poverty. Working together, we invest in the lives of children and youth, build the healthy environments they need to thrive, and empower them to create lasting change in their own lives and communities.

Through a holistic approach to child development, Compassion blends physical, social, economic, and spiritual care. The mission does all of their work through partnerships with thousands of local churches in 25 countries around the world.
Through child sponsorship Compassion International Mission has specific initiatives to help babies and mothers in poverty, develop future leaders, and meet critical needs.
The opportunities to assist with critical needs includes medical assistance, extra food and nutritional supplements, income-generation training, emergency home repairs and disaster relief, access to clean and safe water, education assistance, and other necessities.
Compassion carefully governs spending so that, from 1952 to date, Compassion’s one-to-one sponsorship has touched the lives of more than 4.2 million children. In 2020, supporters enabled them to serve 2.2 million children registered in the program across 8,000 front-line church partners. Of those children, 1.9 million were linked with caring sponsors.
Compassion is on a mission to release children from poverty in Jesus’ name. While Compassion has made tremendous progress in poverty alleviation since 1952, there is still much work to be done. There are still over 570 million children living in poverty – and experts believe that the COVID-19 pandemic may reverse decades of progress in curbing global poverty. Over the past several years, compassion international’s journey has been to move from activity and output monitoring to a more complete picture of the developmental outcomes necessary for children and youth to thrive, as well as understanding the causal attributes of our program’s part in that journey. – Compassion International
