Passing on the baton
1 in every 4 Kenyan boys is unfathered, underfathered or misfathered. As a result, most boys in school and young men in the community lack support that enables them to thrive in the society.
This makes boys and young men to become more vulnerable to juvenile delinquency, gender based violence, sexual assault, crime and conflict.
However, through our After School Program, boys and young men are able to find the support they need.
This includes first, providing porridge to children in PP1, PP2 and Grade 1. Secondly, our team runs a weekly programs for boys in Grade 6, 7 and 8. Lastly, we have a weekend program for young men from communities around our Halfway House.
