Who We are
Youthful Faces (YF) is a 501 (c)(3) not-for-profit organization, committed to achieving Sustainable Development Goals 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 by supporting orphaned and vulnerable children in Kenya with quality education, proper nutrition, access to basic health care—all critically necessary to empower children with confidence as they make their way toward adulthood
Our community is comprised of the children we serve, volunteers, generous donors, faith-based partners, and partner organizations based in the US and Kenya. Together, we are passionately committed to our mission to make positive, long-lasting changes in the lives of children. We work together to ensure that children who have faced tragedy, loss, and/or abuse, never abandon hope or lose their ability to smile and achieve their full potential. We stand in solidarity with marginalized children, in particular, adolescent girls who are extremely vulnerable so that they will never feel alone.
Our Purpose
We exist so that every orphaned and vulnerable child in Kenya accesses quality education, health care, and proper nutrition to realize their full potential.
