    EFAC offers a 7-9 year replicable program that provides education and mentoring from high school through diploma or degree programs. It not only emphasizes skills but also leadership and community involvement so EFAC graduates will become mentors for other disenfranchised students and continue the cycle of education, empowerment and employment.

    At Flying Kites, we believe in children. In their rights and in their dreams. And so, in the Aberdares Mountains of Kenya, we have built a Primary School and Home for children who would otherwise have nowhere to turn. Through our emphasis on exemplary care, education, and compassion, children who have suffered the devastating effects of poverty are being empowered to change the world.
