Elimu means EDUCATION in Swahili
Elimu creates pathways out of poverty through education.
How do We Help?
We are an international development organization that runs projects in Kenya to help children live life to the fullest through access to education and a healthy living environment.
Elimu is not a Typical Charity
We empower communities to help themselves. While Elimu provides leadership and resources, our goal is for the community to sustain its own development through education and the formation of micro-businesses.
Elimu has a Volunteer Presence Across the Globe
Elimu has official nonprofit status in Canada, Kenya, and the USA.
