Who we are
OUR IMPACT
The negative impact of slum life and poverty on children, young women including young mothers from the informal settlements(slums) drives SGI and all our activities. We highlight those parts of society that are broken, so we can help those young females in to regaining hope and to flourish in life.
Our numbers that speak to our achievements
We have numbers that push us to give in our best and make sure that we break our own records. We are happy to be growing and helping more day by day.
Help us raise money for our humanitarian causes
SGI’s Vision is a society in which adolescent girls, young mothers and women at large, have equal access to education, healthcare, and economic opportunities, and are empowered to lead fulfilling and independent lives, free from discrimination and violence.
TUMAINI TRUST KENYA
Tumaini Trust Kenya was founded in 2014 to provide scholarships to bright and needy students, from Nairobi’s Korogocho Slums to secondary and tertiary education in Kenya. Over the years, the Trust has awarded scholarships to over 150 students, facilitated placement of university students into industrial attachment and internships in top firms and institutions in Nairobi and major towns in Kenya. Scholarships are awarded on the basis of academic performance of the students, their attitude and financial inability.
The Trust’s scholars are enrolled in top public secondary schools and universities in Kenya, and into top courses such as Law, Medicine, Economics and Finance, Engineering, Journalism and Media Studies, to ensure the Trust’s alumni rise to prominent roles in the society and contribute to leadership and economic development in Kenya. The Trust runs four programs:
(i) the Scholarship,
(ii) Internship,
(iii) Mentorship and
(iv) Community Outreach through Clean-Up Week, Volunteer, Music Festivals and Sports Tournaments.
