Please help us in support of [Roots Institute Centre](https://rootsinstitutecentre.com)*,* a pre- and primary school that provides **free education, nutritious meals and a safe environment** for over 350 children who are growing up under very unstable and unsafe conditions in the Mathare slum, Nairobi.

I had the opportunity to visit the school in March 2023 and again last week and I am amazed how much they can accomplish with only very little resources. The dedication, love and support the school’s director and her team give to these children who otherwise would not have this opportunity to learn and grow in a place where people try to survive on $2 a day is out of this world. More importantly, I am absolutely in awe of how much they can actually accomplish with only very little means. One dollar goes a really long way and for only $5 you can feed a child for a month.

Our family is committed to supporting the school long-term and we can assure you that all funds raised will directly benefit the school.

Thank you so much for your support, even a little bit can get us a long way to give hope to the Children of Mathare.

Giving hope to the children of Mathare

We aim to promote access to quality education for vulnerable and marginalized populations in Mathare slum in Nairobi, Kenya.
 

**Every child deserves a chance for a better future.**

Enfants de Mathare financially supports the **Roots Institute Centre (RIC),** a primary school in Mathare, one of the largest slums in Nairobi, Kenya. RIC provides free quality education, nutritious meals and a safe environment for vulnerable children of Mathare.

**To be born into Mathare offers little hope of escape. Many of these children will never experience life without violence, hunger or sickness. Joyful, intelligent, and resilient, the children of Mathare deserve the chance for a better future but they need your help to break free from the cycle of poverty.**

Our aim is to raise enough funds to cover RIC’s annual operational costs, which includes teacher salaries and food for the student meals. Every school year we also try to sponsor scholarships for a secondary education for some of our best performing students.

Our long term goal is to build a permanent building that will replace the current corrugated steel structure RIC is housed in. We hope that this new building will serve as a central point for education and training for the entire community.

Your donation will help Roots Institute Centre and Enfants de Mathare transform the lives of hundreds of Mathare children.
