Sponsor a Student

All of our students are extraordinary and have overcome a lot in their education journey. While we’d like to tell all of their stories, let’s start with some stories selected especially for you.

Simon

High school




Simon comes from a large family of six siblings and resides with his mother in Naivasha. Despite his mother’s heart condition and chest problems, which developed after years of labor on the flower farms, she continues to work to support the family. Simon’s siblings are also casual laborers, but Simon dreams of breaking this cycle of hardship through education.

Recently, when he started junior high school, Simon faced financial hurdles as his mother could not afford his school fees and necessary resources like books. Nonetheless, his ambition to become a mechanical engineer burns brightly. This goal is driven by his desire to uplift his family out of poverty and set a new standard for future generations.

Simon’s determination stems from being the first in his family to aspire to university, recognizing education’s transformative power. He sees education as the pathway to achieving his dreams and supporting his family effectively.

Simon’s journey embodies hope and resilience. He can overcome obstacles and realize his aspirations with the right support. By sponsoring Simon, you are investing in a promising future, empowering a determined young man to turn his dreams into reality. Sponsor Simon today.

The Sponsor Experience

  • Cassie and Elijah

    “When we signed up to sponsor our students, we hoped it would help improve their lives. What we didn’t expect was how it would change ours.

    Our students have become our teachers about life, gratitude, optimism, and finding joy in each moment. Supporting an education is a direct investment into these students and their future. Through a sponsorship with Moja Tu, you have the opportunity to create a meaningful relationship with a student that will change not only their life, but yours as well.”
