RILEY ORTON FOUNDATION
DECENT & LOW COST ACCOMMODATION FOR RURAL TEACHERS
Upon deployment by the teachers service commission, the teachers struggle to find quality accommodation. With limited options available, most of them are forced to settle for substandard living conditions, lacking basic amenities and comfort. The absence of suitable accommodation not only affects the well-being of teachers but also impacts the ability of local schools to attract and retain top talent.
The Akili Suites Project aims to address the housing challenges faced by rural teachers while supporting girls' education through scholarships and vocational training by building affordable and decent housing units in Kanyawegi village, Obambo, Kisumu, Kenya.
By offering comfortable accommodation, we seek to enhance the quality of life for these educators and support their vital role in shaping the future of our communities.
Our mission is twofold - to improve the living conditions of rural teachers and to empower girls through educational opportunities. Through the revenue generated from the Akili Suites project, we fund scholarships and vocational training programs to support girls in pursuing their dreams and building a brighter future.
