ABOUT US
In Chulaimbo, Kenya, at least 20% of the school-aged children have lost one or both parents to HIV/AIDS and other diseases.
The Umoja Project has developed a compassionate and comprehensive network of care to respond to the needs of these children, ensuring that they stay in school and perform to the best of their ability.
We believe that education is the key to a better future for Chulaimbo’s orphans and vulnerable children and their communities. We create programs that help students overcome the many obstacles that affect their ability to stay in school and perform their best.
