Who We are
Our Impact
How It Works
We are an organization that believes that achieving universal basic education is the single greatest step that can be taken towards the elimination of global poverty.
We support school children (wherever they are) independent of gender, religion, ethnic group/tribe, country of origin, or political affiliation of parents. We believe in hope and equal opportunities to basic education for all children.
Mtoto Shujaa has one ultimate goal: Every child in school. Every child learning.
Education is a basic human right, and an avenue to a better future. We work with communities to build schools, train teachers, promote the importance of education and ensure that all solutions are sustainable long-term.
We help companies develop powerful corporate social responsibility, grantmaking, and employee engagement strategies. Our impact is about more than moving money to where it’s needed most; it’s also about helping nonprofits access information and ideas that will help them listen, learn, and grow.
What Make Us Different
We Educate
We Help
Across sub-Saharan Africa, families are living in poverty. When you are struggling to survive, education is not a priority. School fees are expensive, and so children are forced to drop out of school and earn a living. The vicious cycle continues
We're helping parents start their own businesses through Savings programs, so that they can break the cycle of poverty.
We are providing farmers and their families with the skills to grow, sell and store more food, to support their children's education.
We're also supporting young parents with life-changing literacy and numeracy skills, as well as access to valuable health and nutrition services, so they can help their children not just survive but succeed.
We Build
Across rural Africa, many children have to choose between getting an education and being safe. Without classrooms, they are forced to study under trees, in all weather. They are exposed to the elements, distracted, and unable to learn. For those who do have some shelter, it is often unstable, with holes in the ceiling that let the rain in, leaving children cold and wet, and ruining their work.
We're building safe and secure classrooms, so that children can focus on their learning, and their futures.
We Donate
High-quality education is the foundation of a child’s life. It is what drives them to grow with wisdom and intelligence and, as such, it requires the right tools. However, school supplies are costly and for some parents and caregivers, buying new material every year is something they cannot afford.
Which is why the donation of school supplies is so important to us at Mtoto Shujaa,
