Story
MSAADA MARAFIKI
- helps young people reach their potential
Msaada Marafiki - meaning "Helping Friends" are working with destitute children and young people in Kenya to provide them with the opportunity of furthering their education or pursuing vocational training in order to better equip them for the future.
The MSAADA MARAFIKI Team
Currently, the team are supporting a project in Kenya, and so far 11 young people have been given a stepping stone from abject poverty to having food, security and educational opportunity.
Yachna Tak (second on the left, in the front) leads a group of volunteers who liaise with local community leaders to identify potential beneficiaries who can then go on to be selected for help. Our volunteers provide mentoring, advice and financial support to enable the young people to become independent and have the best start in their adult life.
We are hoping to continue supporting our young people, and also increasing the numbers of beneficiaries.
