What Can We Accomplish Together?

In Kenya, 60% of families can't afford secondary school fees. Your steps change that. The Kenya Challenge brings people together to raise vital funds for student scholarships, mentorship, and school resources.

Our finish line is a world where every child has a chance to learn.

Why KEF

100% of Every Donation Goes to Student Education

KEF empowers young people in Kenya by breaking barriers to education and creating real opportunities for success. We already helped 5000 children to come out of poverty, who otherwise will risk early marriage, child labor, and gender based violence.

We believe in the power of youth, community, and action to transform futures and change lives. By investing in our students, we are investing in the leaders who will change the future.

Our dream? A world where every child has the opportunity to go to school.
