A staggering 1 billion people worldwide live in a slum. Growing up in one of the harshest environments on the planet makes for pretty grim reading, but what about the hope found amongst these communities? At We the Change Foundation, we focus on the hope and concentrate on Early Childhood Development in particular. We believe that every parent around the world, rich or poor, all want the same thing for their children: a great education. We the Change Foundation in Kenya seeks to provide early childhood education and care to children in marginalized communities. We aim to reach 500 children by year five and develop a model of holistic education to be replicated in government schools across Kenya. We the Change is An Acumen Fund East Africa Fellows Program.
