In the last 3 years since moving to Portugal with our family, Shane and I have been asked to partner with Brave Future through our light steel framing company, Mora Homes, to build a durable, water saving school in Kakuma Kenya, one of the largest Refugee camps in Africa. This hub will give students access to an online world class Cambridge education, clean water, the skills to grow their own food, and a safe place to simply be a teenager - opening the door to a brighter, more hopeful Future.
Kakuma is home to nearly 300,000 refugees, most of them children and youth. While education is a basic right, it remains out of reach for the majority. Without access to quality learning, refugee youth face a future of exclusion, dependence, and lost potential. Entire generations are at risk-not because they lack ability, but because they lack the opportunity to learn.
This project addresses the lack of access to quality education by establishing modular, sustainable Learning Hubs in Kakuma. The Hubs provide safe, connected learning spaces where refugee youth can study consistently, access internationally recognised curricula, and receive academic support. By anchoring education in a reliable physical space, the project turns access to learning from an exception into a stable reality.
This project will provide refugee youth with access to education that is not only high-quality but life-changing. By earning internationally recognized qualifications and developing essential skills like digital literacy, self-directed learning, and critical thinking, students will gain real opportunities for higher education and employment. Over time, the Learning Hub will serve hundreds more, becoming a scalable solution for crisis-affected communities.
