Our Schools
Blair in Kenya supports two locally led schools that provide education, meals, and opportunity to hundreds of children who would otherwise not be able to attend school.
Blair Educational Centre
Blair Educational Centre in Nyahera, Kisumu County, serves over 400 students from playgroup through Grade 9 and is recognized locally for strong academic performance and preparation for secondary school.
The campus includes science and computer labs, a library, dining hall, sports courts, clean water systems, and an on-site health clinic that serves both students and the surrounding community.

Blair Serem Academy
Iten, KenyaBlair Serem School in Iten, Kenya, was founded by former Blair student Kelvin Serem and now serves approximately 900 students from nursery school through junior secondary school (Grades 7–9).
The school provides education, meals, uniforms, books, computer education, and student sponsorship opportunities. Boarding facilities are available for older students at the Iten campus.
Medical Clinic
Blair in Kenya operates a school clinic and is working toward expanding services into a community health center staffed by nurses and visiting doctors in collaboration with the Kenyan Department of Health.
The clinic provides basic medical care for students including malaria testing and treatment, deworming, respiratory care, treatment for infections, and general primary care. As the clinic expands, services will also be available to the surrounding community.
Child Sponsorships
Education in Kenya requires families to cover several costs including tuition, meals, transportation, uniforms, and school supplies. Many families in the communities served by Blair in Kenya cannot afford these expenses.
Through the Child Sponsorship program, donors help ensure that children have the opportunity to attend school, receive meals, and continue their education. Sponsorship helps cover tuition, meals, uniforms, books, and school supplies so children can stay in school and build a better future.
Who We Are/What we do
Blair in Kenya is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that partners with rural communities in western Kenya to provide education, healthcare, and opportunity for children and families. Through two schools, a medical clinic, clean water initiatives, and child sponsorship programs, Blair in Kenya supports more than 1,300 students each year.
Why This Work Matters
In rural western Kenya, many families face daily challenges that make it difficult for children to attend school and stay healthy. School fees, transportation, uniforms, and books can be beyond the reach of families who are working hard simply to provide food and basic necessities.
When children have access to education, healthcare, and opportunity, they gain the power to shape their own future—and the future of their communities.
