In the charity's own words

Empowering Kids in Kenya provides secondary school education to the poorest of the poor children in the Bombolulu suburb of Mombasa, Kenya. Only children who cannot afford an education are accepted into the school. They are charged no fees, no charge for uniforms nor food. Without the generosity of child sponsors and supporters, these children would not be able to attend this exceptional school.
