Heroes Day

Heroes Day is a holiday in Kenya to honor the nation’s heroes.
Join us for our annual fundraiser in honor of our heroes: the families we serve.

Roots aren't very exciting. They're hidden, and take years to grow, but they are also why strong trees last for generations. Rather than being the fastest-growing plants around, they rise slowly and push slowly. This is how we are building Ndoto.

God has done great things through Ndoto. For a month leading up to Heroes Day on Tuesday, October 20th, we'll be telling the stories of four young men who are heroes of ours. Subscribe to our mailing list, follow us on Facebook, and check back here to see the videos and hear the stories.

Salim came full circle in the place that he found healing
Sports helped build Zeddy's confidence, discipline, and purpose.
Brian found modern agriculture and used it to mentor others
Hawi was falling behind until he came to Ndoto Academy

One of our core values is that sponsorship donations go entirely to Kenya for education and discipleship of our students. We won't take any portion out for US expenses, no matter how important the expense is. We don't even pull credit card fees out. That means we need to fundraise everything that keeps Ndoto going separately, and Heroes Day is the one time of year that we come to everyone and ask for help.

We know that you know it takes a lot of resources beyond the direct program expenses to keep an organization going. We keep our overhead very stripped down so that we can put as much as possible toward sponsorship, Ndoto Community Church, Ndoto Sports, and Ndoto Academy. So if you are inspired by what God is doing through us in Kenya, we are asking for your support to keep going.

We need about $70,000 this year to make our annual budget. We've reached this far because you have believed in us. We'll keep going because we believe in us, and that's why we are unashamed to ask for you to join us! Every year we have made our goal, and we'll be honest that the need is great this year since we put extra effort last year into building the school. Will you join us again this year?
