Beyond bricks and mortar: building futures
Welcome to our School Development journey. Here, you'll discover how Glynviah Roots Foundation is creating a permanent home for learning and growth in Bungoma County, Kenya. We're building more than a school; we're establishing a foundation for quality education, talent development, community empowerment, and sustainable livelihoods for vulnerable children and families. Join us in shaping a brighter future.
Our progress and plans
Glynviah Roots Foundation is committed to transparency and progress. See what we've accomplished so far and our vital next steps in building a safe, inclusive, and sustainable school that transforms lives for generations to come.
Land secured
Founders have registered a CBO in Kenya and secured land for Glynviah Roots Academy, establishing a permanent base for education.
Children supported
Several vulnerable children are already attending primary and high school through sponsorships, ensuring their learning continues while the Academy develops.
Community engaged
Families and local community members are actively involved in the planning and early development stages, fostering local ownership and trust.
Invest in a brighter future
Every fence, classroom, and facility we build contributes to giving children access to quality education, empowering families, and strengthening the wider community. Your support directly creates a safe, permanent, and empowering space where potential thrives.
Making a real difference in Bungoma County
Building Glynviah Roots Academy will profoundly impact children and the wider community in Bungoma County. It provides stability, expands opportunities, empowers families, and breaks cycles of poverty. We're already seeing successes: 6 children attend school via sponsorship, 15 out-of-school children are supported, 7 women empowered through entrepreneurship, and youth involved in cultural and sports programmes gaining school admission. A permanent site scales these successes, providing a long-term foundation for education, empowerment, and community growth.
Join our mission: urgent needs
We hope you feel inspired to make a meaningful difference. To achieve our vision, we urgently need funding to secure the land, build essential classrooms and boarding facilities, and support more children's education. Your donation, sponsorship, or volunteer time helps us provide a consistent place for children to learn, grow, and develop skills for life, ensuring no child misses out on learning.
