We are driven by
a single goal …
to improve urban cities
one child at a time.
Our approach to the social crisis in urban communities is to combine financial literacy, authentic cultural experiences, and community advocacy, which creates a life blueprint for our scholars.

Words cannot explain the gratitude I have for the Nyamwange Foundation for giving Keith the chance to experience what he and I agree on as a trip of a lifetime. The time spent in Africa through his own words was amazing, uplifting and exhilarating. As a parent you want your children to experience all the great gifts in life, the gift of love,the gift of learning gratitude, the gift of experiencing all the things that you may not have been able to obtain for yourself this trip has definitely fulfilled that. I would again like to thank the Nyamwamge Foundation and staff for allowing Keith to travel to Kenya to open his mind and his heart.

I am honored to be part of a foundation that not only supports underprivileged students and affords them opportunities to excel, but also gives them life changing experiences they would not otherwise have. I’m excited about making a difference in the urban community through the Nyamwange Foundation.
