    Help Us Empower Teenagers in Kakuma: Become a Fundraiser for Our Computer Lab

    ABOUT THE OPPORTUNITY

    Are you passionate about empowering young people and closing the digital divide? Join us as a remote fundraiser to support a critical project at the Teenagers Center for Awakening, a Refugee-Led Community-Based Organization in Kakuma. We are raising $10,000 on GivenGain to build and equip a dedicated computer lab that will provide vocational training and a gateway to sustainable livelihoods for teenagers in Kakuma .

    In the vast landscape of Kakuma, thousands of teenagers face an uncertain future with limited access to educational resources and vocational skills. Our computer lab will be a beacon of hope, equipping them with essential 21st-century skills like basic computer literacy, internet research, and even an introduction to coding and graphic design. These skills will give them a competitive edge for remote work, further education, and entrepreneurial ventures.

    How you can make a difference:

    This isn't just about donating—it's about becoming a champion for change. We need passionate individuals to help us reach our $10,000 goal to purchase ten new computers and renovate the lab space.

    Your role as a remote fundraiser is simple but powerful. You can help us by:

    • Creating your own fundraising page: Launch a personal fundraising project on our GivenGain campaign page. Whether you run a marathon, host a small event, or simply ask your network for support, every dollar you raise brings us closer to our goal.
    • Spreading the word: Share our campaign link with your network on social media, via email, or in person. Tell them why this mission matters to you and encourage them to get involved.
    • Inspiring others: Your efforts will directly help a teenager in Kakuma gain self-reliance, access a world of knowledge, and find hope and purpose for a better future.
