Founded in 2004, Bringers of Joy Education Centre is a non-profit organization dedicated to empowering vulnerable children in Mathare slums by providing access to quality education despite challenging circumstances. Established by a group of local women, the center recognized the urgent need for educational resources for children impacted by poverty and the HIV/AIDS epidemic, which left many children orphaned. With a focus on overcoming barriers such as school fees, uniforms, and books, Bringers of Joy was created to ensure that these children could attend school.

To increase school attendance and bring hope to children in need, Bringers of Joy Education Centre introduced a feeding program that provides nutritious meals. This initiative fosters a safe and welcoming environment where children are encouraged to stay engaged in their studies. Today, the center serves as a beacon of opportunity in Mathare North, working to break the cycle of poverty through comprehensive support. By providing clean water, promoting health and wellness, and delivering inclusive education, Bringers of Joy Education Centre is giving Mathare’s children a chance for a brighter future.

The center focuses on key pillars such as ending poverty, improving health outcomes, and ensuring sustainable development through education. Bringers of Joy Education Centre is not just a school but a lifeline for children in need, offering the essential resources and support to help them thrive. This community-driven initiative showcases how local action can make a significant difference in the lives of disadvantaged children, helping create a better tomorrow for future generations.
