OneKid OneWorld provides a foundation for education in impoverished communities throughout Kenya and El Salvador by giving children from primary school through secondary school the opportunity for a better and brighter future. By providing the basic needs of learning, fundamentals like desks and books, as well as paying teachers' salaries, building classrooms and even installing solar power technology so students can study at night, OneKid continues to make a tremendous impact not just on individual lives, but communities as a whole. Since 2006, OneKid OneWorld has raised over $1,000,000 with over 93% going directly to the projects. The 501c3 certified organization has directly affected the lives of over 5,000 students through the various efforts and most importantly provided hope where it may not have ever existed before.
