Formerly known as Project Kenya Sister Schools, the program helps Kenyan children attend school through donations and sister school partnerships. LFAS works with Ol Pejeta Conservancy school, in the Laikipia region of Kenya.
PA-MOJA, a Swahili word for together, began with a small group at LFAS, and now works with schools across North America. Last year they raised $45,000, which went towards bursaries for students to attend high school, uniforms, desks, school supplies and a nursery school.
鈥淚t helps connect our school with one goal and create a cultural exchange so we can breakdown the stereotypes in Kenya,鈥� said Jessica Schmidt, a Grade 11 student at LFAS.
鈥�(The Kenyan students are) people like us who have dreams and inspirations that are just born into less fortunate situations.鈥�
