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.

🎓 Why Give on Giving Tuesday?

Giving Tuesday is a global moment of generosity.
For Starehe students, it becomes a lifeline:

  • A chance to stay in school for all four years
  • Access to uniforms, meals, books, and essential supplies
  • Mentorship and leadership development
  • A launchpad into impactful careers and lives of service

A single donation—big or small—helps a promising student step through the gates of Starehe and into a life of dignity and hope.

Why Your Giving Matters—Especially From the U.S.

Support from U.S.-based donors is crucial to sustaining Starehe’s mission.
Your Giving Tuesday gift helps the Foundation:

  • Fund scholarships for bright students from low-income backgrounds
  • Support welfare and essential needs for vulnerable students
  • Promote gender equity through girls’ education
  • Strengthen Kenya’s future leadership pipeline

As a 501(c)(3) charity, your donation is tax-deductible in the U.S.
