Mission Statement

Breaking the cycle of poverty for women and children through skills-based education, training programs, and advocacy

About This Cause

The KSP was founded by Evelyne keomian, an Ivory Coast native who knows very well what it means to not have access to education due to extreme poverty and gender discrimination. As a child, Evelyne experienced hunger often and can still remember it all too well. At the KSP we provide education, meals, and other urgently needed necessities to children and women who live in extreme poverty. In the Ivory Coast, we serve children who once were on the streets and in plantations. Our school and community center provide a safe space for children to learn and grow. The community also gathers here to learn basic literacy skills, advocacy, and other community improvement projects are conducted. In San Francisco Bay Area we work with children who live in Residential Vehicles (RVs) and homeless children. We provide educational materials and access to available services. We advocate for equity and equality in education for all children. We believe that every child is a diamond. We create the catalyst to help them reach their potentials.
