The Imani Project is a partnership between Americans and Kenyans, dedicated to empowering children affected by extreme poverty in coastal Kenya by promoting education and improving health through nutritional support for the children and their families. The mission of the Imani Project is to empower these children to become leaders, educators, and caregivers in their communities.
Become a Sponsor
The Imani Project matches African children suffering from extreme poverty with international sponsors. A gift of $35/month provides food and support for the child and their guardians.
Success Story
Coming soon…

Mama Marlene Learning Center
The Imani Project started and continues to support a small preschool in the village of Misufini in Kalifi County Kenya. The school was renovated and renamed Mama Marlene Learning Center in honor of our founder, Marlene Anderson.
Our Children
Our children live in over 25 villages in a 30 Km radius of Malindi, Kenya. Children receive bimonthly distributions of food and other essential commodities. School fees and uniforms are provided for all preschool through 9th grade students.

From Our President
We’re excited to announce a new collaboration between The Imani Project and the Rotary Club of Malindi, Kenya that will be focused on enhancing our food distribution program for our sponsored families!
We are also working with a regional nutritionist to make recommendations for our distributions.
