July 2025 – Alumni Scholarship Drive Launched

Every year, the world unites on Giving Tuesday to support causes that create real, life-changing impact.
This Giving Tuesday, we invite you to stand with Starehe Foundation, Inc., a U.S.-registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to ensuring promising young people in Kenya can access a world-class education at Starehe Boys’ Centre & School and Starehe Girls’ Centre & School.
For thousands of families in Kenya, high school is not guaranteed. Starehe offers not just education, but safety, structure, mentorship, and a community committed to excellence and service.
Your Giving Tuesday gift can transform a student’s entire future.
