Ufanisi Center Nairobi

In 2019 Ufanisi realized with the support of Lila Foundation their first brick and mortar school building. The building provides 5 class rooms, bathrooms, a teacher room, the kitchen, water tanks, power, internet and all other things a good school requires.
In the last years over 750 children and the community have been the happy Ufanisi users of the building. Time to expand!
In 2023 Ufanisi acquired the neighbour plot with the help of Lila Foundation.

We are now raising to build the next building on the acquired plot.
