Our programs
What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?
Malaika School
The Malaika School is a free, accredited primary and secondary school that provides a comprehensive and high quality education to more than 300 girls. The rigorous curriculum is structured around daily classes taught in French and English, on subjects including STEM, information technology, health, and civic education. Art, music, theater, and physical education are also a key part of the robust educational programming.
The students are given many opportunities to grow as leaders, from involvement in the Girl Scouts to field trips and community service projects, such as planting trees or teaching the community about malaria prevention. Additionally, each student receives two healthy meals a day -- often the only ones she may receive -- and is given regular health check ups. The Malaika School is also a sustainable complex, 100 percent powered by solar energy.
Kalebuka Football for Hope Community Center
Beyond the school, Malaika is impacting the surrounding village through its Community Center, built in partnership with FIFA, which provides education, health, and sports programming to approximately 5,000 youths and adults per year.
Clean Water
Malaika has built and refurbished 17 wells that together supply fresh water to 30,000 people a year, greatly reducing water-borne disease and illness.
