About This Cause
OUR MISSION & VISION: The KGSA Foundation partners with the Kibera Girls Soccer Academy (KGSA) to provide a free, holistic high school education to 150 girls every year in Kibera, Kenya – one of Africa’s largest informal settlements. Through financial and technical resources, the KGSA Foundation supports KGSA’s academic programming in addition to nutrition, health care, extra-curricular and leadership initiatives along with higher education scholarships for graduates to unlock potential, expand opportunities, and enable each girl with the ability to shape her future. Together with KGSA, we are working to break the cycle of poverty for the girls and their families, empowering them to become stronger, more independent and resilient women. Visit our website to watch a video narrated by NPR's Robin Young to see our mission in action. Follow @KGSAFoundation on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn and Twitter to see school updates and the impact of your donations! OUR PHILOSOPHY: 1) We believe local problems need local solutions. We recognize the expertise of community leaders and invest in their ability to respond to problems on their own terms. When local leaders are given the chance to lead, they create innovative solutions to combat poverty that outsiders may miss. 2) We believe in the power of the #girleffect. Investing in girls transforms their lives and uplifts their families and communities. 3) We stand by our Child Protection Policy. The protection of children is an integral component of KGSA’s approach: that girls receive a quality education in which their rights are respected and they feel safe and protected. 4) We value transparency and accountability. The KGSA Foundation is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. Our charitable employer identification number (EIN) is 80-0390275.
