Simbolei Academy is the only secondary school dedicated to educated the young women of the Rift Valley Province in Kenya.
We invite you to join us in this project. With the help of our donors and our Kenyan partners, Simbolei Academy is making an affordable secondary education a reality for young women in rural Kenya.
Girls’ Education Programs
The goal of the Simbolei Community Assistance Association is to build and develop a high-quality, affordable high school for girls in Kamariny, the heart of Kenya’s rural Rift Valley Province.
We seek to provide a model for other schools throughout Kenya for the incorporation of community values and community involvement, as well as education that values and develops critical and creative thinking.
Community Literacy
Simbolei Academy also encourages literacy and community cohesiveness. Programs include tutoring for children and educational seminars for adults on child development, health and home economics.
Our school includes an open community library to help build cultural understanding and a broader knowledge of the world. We also continue our annual literacy volunteer summer programs.
Discover Kenya’s Rift Valley
Rift Valley Province in Kenya is physically beautiful but economically and educationally disadvantaged. In 2017, one-third of students finishing primary school were unable to attend high school because not enough schools were available.
