In years past, our community knew Ndoto almost exclusively as a sponsorship program. While it might seem that a sponsorship program would be famous, 11 years after launching we still run into people in our community who have never heard of us. Ndoto Community Church is the way to reach people who are beyond the reach of our limited sponsorship program.
Our neighborhood has a large sports field, and this past year our team saw the opportunity to launch a community soccer team.

by Fred Sadia Moments of joy have slipped past so quickly. This year, days have swiftly melted into weeks, and weeks into months. The tomorrow that we warmly thought of became today before we knew it. It hit us here at Ndoto on January 4 when suddenly our dear students were nowhere to be seen at the Ndoto compound. The schools have at last been opened, which we are thankful for, but even so we can’t stop thinking of the sweet memories we’ve shared together with them while they were at home during the longest school break in the history of our country.

by Fred Sadia The government of Kenya shut down schools all over the country in March in a bid to control the rising numbers of Covid-19 cases. Children all over the country found themselves in a moment of anxiety, not aware of what the future held for them. Parents alike found themselves drowning in uncertainty. The long holiday proved to be a thorn in the side of everyone in education. But Ndoto became a safe haven for many children, especially in our new library.

by Fred Sadia Dave in 2014 Not all sleepers get to land in paradise with every dream, but when the light of dawn casts a rosy hue across the morning sky, a dreamer cannot be tethered. Dave is such a dreamer. His story is one of resilience, perseverance, and hope. He lives beyond his broken past, focusing on his aspirations and keeping his dream alive. From a tender age, Dave always believed that a day would come when he would be a leader.

by Fred Sadia Every year, Ndoto announces sponsorship opportunities for bright students who have financial need. Young people stream into the Ndoto offices to acquire the application forms hoping that they will qualify to join the Ndoto family. The staff then commences the vigorous selection process that lasts for several weeks and ultimately culminates in the final list of accepted students. During the selection process we meet students who have been neglected, rejected, and isolated.
