MYSA - Creating Sustainable Change in East Nairobi (360G-CR-1324510)

Funding Organization
£300,000

Young people in Mathare, Nairobi, one of the biggest slums in Africa, face high levels of crime and violence, few formal education opportunities and high unemployment. They live in over-crowded conditions, and a lack of water and basic sanitation lead to high rates of communicable diseases. This grant will provide young people with opportunities to play football, develop skills to tackle problems that arise in their daily lives, gain work experience, career guidance and access to education. As a result, they will be better prepared for formal employment, able to act as leaders within their community, and be able to make more informed choices about their lives.
