Students get outfitted for success!


Class 3 and 4 students received the second set of uniforms brought over from the US. Thanks again Rotary Club of San Mateo, CA!

Obviously, the students are pretty excited. We won our first game against much older children in these uniforms!

    The definition of success--

    "To laugh much; to win respect of intelligent persons and the affections of children; to appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to give one's self; to leave the world a little better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition.; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived--this is to have succeeded."

    -- Ralph Waldo Emerson

    We provide high- quality primary education to approximately 175 children in rural Kenya. We also offer computer skills training, health education, and after school tutoring. Without Vutakaka Junior School, many of our students would not attend school at all or would have to study in extremely overcrowded (up to 200 students in a class) and under- resourced government schools. Our curriculum is based on Kenyan & European standards.

    Mission Statement:

    The East African Center for the Empowerment of Women and Children (EAC) is a non-profit organization that helps communities achieve empowerment by increasing literacy for women and children, improving health status, and eradicating poverty.
