Many of these young people are unable to finish their formal education as they are experiencing poverty, so our courses are completely free, to ensure no-one is excluded from the opportunity to learn.
Our free training courses also address any of the barriers which may stop a young person from being able to learn. We offer the Seed of Hope students in Kenya;
-
free lunches everyday, you can’t learn when you’re hungry.

childcare vouchers to ensure young mothers can learn.

You’ll support with crafting engaging funding applications, which stand out from the crowd and capture the funders hearts.
