School Health Programs In Kenya
Help us welcome the next 20 schools with the tools and support they need to succeed.
In just two and half years, One Good Turn's School Health Officer Training Program has reached over 132,000 community members through a combination of educator training, community partnerships, and school-based implementation. To date, the program has reached 111 schools, trained 450 School Health Officers, and impacted 43,500 students across Kenya.
When schools have trained School Health Officers, students miss fewer days due to preventable illness and receive life-saving health education. Families feel more confident sending their children to school, and School Health Officers have the knowledge and tools to respond to health needs as they arise.
We support newly trained schools through a School Health Kit, which includes essential supplies and printed copies of our School Health Officer Handbook. This practical educational guide helps SHOs apply their training directly in schools with students. A gift of $250 provides a school in Kenya with a complete set of school health supplies and educational resources. While every contribution supports the broader School Health Program, this amount shows the kind of impact you can help make happen.
And right now, your gift goes even further. Thanks to a generous partnership with Love Tito’s, all donations are currently matched by 20%- your $50 becomes $60, and your $100 becomes $120. Give today to make an even greater impact.
As we welcome new School Health Officers into the training program, help us ensure they receive the training, support, and tools to support students every day. Every gift supports lasting change.
