Nyumbani UK & The Hotcourses Foundation fully funds the primary school and the high school in the Nyumbani Village, a community serving 1,000 orphaned children and 100 elders who are all affected by HIV. We believe that education can empower the children to overcome the stigma of HIV/AIDS and the loss of the parents, so they can pull themselves out of poverty. Despite the enormous challenges in their young lives, many of our students are achieving excellent academic results and continue on to tertiary education.  State schools in Kenya can often have up to 100 pupils in a class.  We want to give the children of Nyumbani an outstanding education so they have fighting chance to overcome the extreme challenges in their lives and reach their full potential.  That is why our schools are funded entirely by your private donations.

"When I was at home I could be chased away from the school to go and look for fees. But now in Nyumbani everything is okay. There is health, there is everything because I'm also given uniform, I'm given books, I'm given food, so everything is okay" - Bryan M.
