Boys who are facing stigma or trauma need tools that can help them to heal, recover and find restoration. Here are our programs
Our mission is to be a beacon of hope, healing and transformation, where boys can heal, regain their strength, and rewrite the stories of their lives.
OUR PRIORITY
Halfway House for Boys
Our Halfway House provides protection that enables boys to actively participate in their court cases and seek justice against their perpetrators.
By doing so, we help prevent further abuse and protect other boys in our community. Join us in creating a future where every boy has the chance to heal and flourish.
Keeping Boys in School
Education is a long-lasting and powerful tool for equipping young men to treat women and girls with honor, dignity and respect.
Transformative Justice
Enabling young offenders to take full responsibility and make amends is the key to healing and reconciliation with their families and their communities.
Lifesong for Mothers
Building capacity that enables mothers of our boys and young men to parent boys in crisis, start small businesses and generate income.

Testimonials
The idea of visiting families and helping them budget whatever little or much they have is just amazing. These are some of the valuable lessons we shall take home even post Covid-19. Giving and donating is good, but when someone donates exactly what you need, even the most basic, then that’s the best.
MAGGY K, Covid-19 Beneficiary
Lifesong Kenya’s After-School Program has helped our boys to become better in terms of their character, responsibility at home and academic performance. I also like the way the whole team is dedicated to their work and to leading by example, which helps model our boys. Kudos to the whole team!
CHARLES EDWARDS, Director, Five Star Academy
The Care Package enabled my brother, two uncles and myself to have food and kerosene during Covid-19. We don’t know how we would have survived without support from Lifesong Kenya!
W BULIMU, Covid-19 Beneficiary
Lifesong Kenya provided a place for me to stay, meals and a safe space where I was able to rebuild my life. They also organized a WhatsApp Group that enabled me to find a new job and the money that I needed to move out and pay rent in my own house.
