Summary

Challenges faced by Street Youth continue to increase with the barriers brought in by the COVID-19 pandemic. Through the support of our donors via GlobalGiving, we have been able to construct a boy's dorm that has the capacity to host 60 and assist the street boys. However, the pandemic has worsened the situation for girls. Kenya reported a 40% increase in monthly teen pregnancies that includes a significant number of street girls. Our next step is to build the dorm with daycare for the girls.
