Sponsoring one child can spark hope that reaches far beyond a single life. In rural Kenya, many families face the weight of generational poverty. By providing a child with education, nutritious food, clean water, safe shelter, and support, you empower them to build a brighter future—not just for themselves, but for their families and communities.
All of this begins with $40 a month.
You can sponsor a child through PayPal using a child's link below, or contact us at changinglives@hopeforkenya.org to sponsor by check. All checks can be mailed to Hope for Kenya, PO Box 27, Corinth, NY, 12822. Once we recieve your first check or after you have sign up as a sponsor using one of the links below, you will receive a confirmation email within 48 hours from our organizion confirming your sponsorship.
Thank you for partnering with us to bring lasting change to communities in Kenya!
