Advancing education in Kenya, one child at a time

CMETrust’s mission is to advance education in Kenya by providing secondary school scholarships, with funds raised annually, to students from Mathare Valley Slum, Nairobi; and, to raise awareness in Canada about education and poverty in urban Kenya.

CMETrust is currently supporting 40 scholars in high school and has 31 alumni. We are also piloting two post-secondary scholarships.

CMETrust was founded in 2006 and is an entirely volunteer-run, registered Canadian charity with chapters in Kitchener-Waterloo, Ottawa and Toronto. CMETrust is proud to be a new member of the Ontario Council for International Cooperation.
