They Built a School From Nothing. Help Them Build What's Next.
Introduction
In 2000, fourteen Maasai children gathered under a tree with one teacher. Today, Oloigero Primary School serves more than 800 pupils — every classroom, every wall built by the community itself. Now its pit latrines are collapsing, there are no handwashing stations, and adolescent girls have no safe or private sanitation facilities.
The community has reached the limit of what it can build alone. Every gift — no matter the size — brings 819 children closer to safe sanitation, better health, and the dignity they deserve.
Goal: $30,000 — Phase 1: Safe Sanitation for Oloigero Primary School
