Mission

Ndoto works to give at-risk youth and adults in Kenya hope for a brighter future through education, discipleship, and development. Our mission is to educate, disciple, and develop people and their communities to make their dreams a reality, glorify God, and use their gifts to transform their community.

Program accomplishments

• Student Sponsorship. Ndoto's student sponsorship program supports education and discipleship in Kenya. Through Ndoto's grants to Ndoto Kenya, 312 students were sponsored in 2025. These students were enrolled in schools from kindergarten through university. They received basic school supplies, medical care, and tuition and fees. Ndoto Kenya employs full-time staff to care for the students' spiritual, emotional, social, and physical needs. Ndoto Kenya hosts student retreats, service days, Bible studies, and more for sponsored students. The Ndoto Community Church, and all of its programs, is supported through the Sponsorship program, though it is open to the entire community. The church has hundreds of members in adult worship and children's Sunday School programs. Donations to the student sponsorship fund, through sponsorships in honor of specific students, go to support the entire operations of Ndoto in Kenya. 100% of sponsorship fund donations go to Kenya.

• Ndoto Academy. In 2022, after years of dreaming and a year of planning, Ndoto Academy opened on the organization's campus in Obunga. Ndoto Academy is a private Christian school that began with 3 early childhood grades and intends to add one grade per year until it covers through grade 9. Ndoto Academy features small class sizes, creative and passionate teachers, a computer lab, the best playground in town, and an intentional pastoral program of age-appropriate discipleship. 125 students were enrolled in 2025 in three preschool grades and grades 1-3. A majority of Ndoto Academy expenses are covered by tuition revenue, and Ndoto has the school on a path to complete, un-subsidized financial sustainability by 2029. The majority of US-side expenses toward Ndoto Academy were toward Campus Dream, the project to build the Ndoto campus that will support the entire operation into the future. In 2025, the majority of construction was completed for a 3-story, 12,000sqft building, and a parcel of land was purchased.

• Visiting Missionary. Visiting missionaries are an important part of Ndoto's work in the US and in Kenya. Travelers from the US serve several important functions. They are valuable volunteers on the ground in Kenya. They help to transport supplies across continents. They encourage Ndoto's students, particularly when sponsors get to meet the students they are matched with. Visiting missionaries is also an important part of Ndoto's development work, as travelers who aren't already Ndoto supporters often return home as new supporters. They become ambassadors for Ndoto, sharing the word about the good work being done. In 2025, Ndoto hosted 37 visiting missionaries in Kenya. This included family of the executive director, a mission team from a partner church, a vision trip made up of donors, a spiritual care ministry seminar, a boxing group, and a family trip. These visiting missionaries performed many very valuable tasks on the ground in Kenya and returned blessed by what they had seen and done.

• Ndoto Sports. Ndoto Sports replaces the Development program service for now, as it is the primary means of community development at present outside of Ndoto's other programs. The heart of community development is building assets that the community didn't have before, and Ndoto Sports has been a tremendous benefit to the community. Ndoto Sports encompasses Ndoto Soccer Academy, which is multiple youth and adult soccer teams of both genders, some of which play competitively in the official league. It also includes Ndoto Boxing, which is the premier boxing club in our area of the country. It also includes Ndoto Gym, which has become a strong pillar of our community with weightlifting, cardio, and boxing. All of these programs provide an opportunity to reach young men and women who cannot be reached by Ndoto's other programs. They are exposed to discipleship opportunities, mentorship, coaching, and receive a "home away from home" where they finally fit in. Ndoto Sports further provides some youth the avenue to pursue a career in athletics, which would not have been possible before.

• Emergency Relief. This program service replaces Student Emergencies, as it serves the community more widely. Ndoto is prepared to provide above-and-beyond support of any kind to sponsored students, athletes, Academy students, church members, and more who face emergencies in their lives. Meeting immediate and critical needs is a necessary part of working in a slum, where our Kenyan staff can quickly identify emergencies that we should step into as opposed to challenges that the community can meet on its own. In addition to regular small cases, Ndoto helped to provide for a student surgery and care for three individuals who had major deaths in the family.
