Join the The 1010 Project this summer for one of our incredible service learning opportunities!

Business Focus – (June 8th – 24th)

Come listen, learn, teach, and experience life in the business sector of Kenya, one of the largest economies in East Africa and a dynamic hub of both informal and formal commerce. Your service learning experience will include conversations with entrepreneurs in both cosmopolitan Nairobi and the remote farms of rural Western Kenya, with numerous opportunities to search for creative solutions to pressing challenges. Don’t miss a chance to see firsthand the possibilities and ingenuity in one of Africa’s emerging markets.

Education Focus – (July 6th – 22nd)

In 2002 President Mwai Kibaki made primary education free throughout Kenya. The ensuing surge of enrollment speaks to a strong desire among Kenyans, especially the poor, to pursue an education. Nonetheless, high dropout rates from primary to secondary levels remain a concern. Come listen, learn, teach, and experience the nuances of public and private education in Kenya. You will have ample opportunity to interact with students of different ages and backgrounds and meet remarkable teachers who create opportunities even without material items for curriculums. If you are a teacher, educator, child care worker, or interested in a career in such a field, this is the service learning experience for you!

Cost per person equals approximately $3,500 (inclusive of airfare – subject to change)

If you are interested, please write a short email to development@the1010project.org expressing your interest. We we will then provide you with a service learning application.

Space is limited and the application deadline is April 1st – SO make your purposeful summer plans now!
