Provide 70 HIV/AIDS orphans in Kenya access to education by supporting student run income generating projects that pay their school fees and teach ‘Rural Entrepreneurship’.
Accessing education for HIV/AIDS orphans in Kenya is very difficult when there are school fees to pay and siblings to support. However without access to education these orphans have little chance of raising their families out of poverty. Practical and educational income generating projects provide a way for orphans to both pay their fees and learn the entrepreneurial and technical skills needed to support their families.
By expanding and establishing new rural enterprises at Ototo Secondary Schools, 70 orphans will gain access to a secondary education and hands on training in entrepreneurship & sustainable agriculture.
This project is financially self-sufficient, which means that it will continue to provide access to education for HIV/AIDS students year after year after year. For example within 25 years, betweem 2,500 and 3,000 students will have benefited.
This project has provided additional documentation in a Microsoft Word file (projdoc.doc).
