Education
Through our education apostolate, we empower children and youth to grow in wisdom, integrity, and faith. We believe that every learner is a gift from God, deserving of opportunities to flourish.
Education lies at the heart of our mission. The Little Sisters of St. Francis of Assisi run schools, vocational centers, and adult literacy programs across communities, nurturing the mind and spirit alike.
We believe that true education forms the whole person — intellectually, morally, and spiritually. Our goal is to raise individuals who can think critically, act compassionately, and serve selflessly.
Through partnerships, scholarships, and infrastructure development, we continue to make quality education accessible to all, especially the less privileged. With your support, we can build a future grounded in knowledge, faith, and love.
Mama Kevina Training Centre
Mama Kevina Skills Training Centre is in Kangundo sub county, Machakos County. It was started by the little Sisters of St Francis in 1986. This was after a survey of the area which was done by the little Sisters within the sub county. The sisters found out that most the elderly families, were keeping orphans. As they assisted the old persons with basic needs, they thought of their future when the handouts would be over and also of the children they stay with. The Centre offers the following courses; Tailoring and dressmaking, Knitting and embroidery, Hair dressing and beauty therapy.
