Our vision is to educate and empower Kenyan youth to become successful entrepreneurs. Project Baobab provides free education and entrepreneurial grants to youth, especially women, through a specialized curriculum in Kenya, a country of 40% unemployment with 58% of the people living below a $2 a day. Upon graduation, our students compete for $100 grants to fund their business idea.  We are currently operating in ten high schools, six communities, and the largest women’s prison in Kenya.
Since 2001, Project Baobab has educated over 800 students and funded approximately 300 new business ventures.
