Because ALL Children Matter

Who we are

We are a very diverse group of volunteers who have decided to come together to form our own Non Government Organization (NGO) Because ALL Children Matter. We are located across the globe, Canada, USA, England, Australia and Kenya we believe being such a worldly group will enhance and help to support our causes. We have different backgrounds and a wide variety of educational skills, combining our education and work experience will be an tremendous asset to making our NGO successful. We all have the same goals and wishes for the children and families living in Kenya, we want to help them succeed and have a life worth living, not just live their lives.

What we do

Because ALL Children Matter has created partnerships with local organizations to help broaden our ability to empower children. Through these partnerships we offer more diverse volunteer experiences and opportunities to strengthen Africa’s communities. We will be giving aid to children in special needs in Kenya, children’s homes, children living on the streets, those with AIDS and HIV. We will achieve this through educating the local people, donations, improving and building new homes and schools, raising public awareness and empowering local communities.

Why we do what we do

In Kenya, the situation of Orphans and Vulnerable Children is an issue of concern. Currently it is estimated there are over 3 million Orphans in the country, 47%* orphaned as a result of HIV and AIDS and many more remain vulnerable due to several other factors, including special needs and disability. Additionally, public schools do not have the resources to adequately meet the needs of children living with a disability or special education needs. These are some of the reasons behind creating Because ALL Children Matter by a diverse group of international volunteers from Canada, Kenya, Australia, USA and the United Kingdom – all of whom posses a unique set of skills and relevant experience.
