Education mentorship and tutorial project for OVCs

Kenyan society includes a disproportionately large number of orphans and vulnerable children (OVCs). This demands unprecedented efforts from government, civil society and the business sector to strengthen and support communities so that they are able to meet the physical, emotional and psychosocial needs of all our children. Importantly, these efforts to mitigate this social crisis need to be sustainable into next decades, enabling the children to grow into productive adults.
