Our Mission:
Mtoto Africa is a 501(c)3 who is focused on strengthening communities through educating children. By removing barriers such as lack of food, poor health, safety, trained teachers and a better learning environment, many young Kenyans will have a chance at a more independent and sustainable future.
Our Philosophy:
We believe providing an education is not just about the school. Kids needs mentors, job training, a safe living environment and positive relationships. We encourage local ownership through local participation. Student, parent and community involvement is key to success. We are open to not only financial participation and giving of resources, but also trips to the local Kenyan communities in Africa for hands-on learning and sharing experiences. Presently, Mtoto Africa is uniquely positioned to give 100 percent of its funds to its projects.
How You Can Become Involved:
In the past, we have had people involved through the giving of time, money or other resources. We highly encourage people to take a trip to Africa to participate on projects on the ground. Most recently in June of 2011, a group of 9 volunteers travelled to Kenya and put together a library for a local school. If you are interested in being involved, please email or call us.
