Mary's Meals works in 18 countries across Africa, Asia, Latin America, Eastern Europe, and the Caribbean.
Children in Kenya face many challenges in gaining an education. For many living in large urban slums, life is a constant struggle and daily survival takes priority over attending school.
We work in Eldoret where we attract many children living in urban slums into the classroom. In northern Turkana, which has been hard hit by drought and rising food insecurity, we provide life-saving meals to the children of livestock farmers via nurseries.
Our work
We reach children in the urban slums of Kisiii and Eldoret and young Turkana children in remote tribal areas.
