St. Aloysius Gonzaga Secondary School’s

Thank you!

St. Aloysius Gonzaga just finished its 21st academic year. In January 2004 St. Al’s began its mission by welcoming 56 students, all promising AIDS-affected youth from devastating poverty, who would not be able to access a secondary education without the scholarship we provided. St. Aloysius now has 935 graduates, and is currently sponsoring 151 graduates to continue their studies in university, diploma or certificate programs. Over 800 St. Al’s grads have now completed their tertiary education. St. Aloysius is ranked in the top 2% of high schools in Kenya.

About the Foundation

After 14 years of support from the Midwest Province of the Jesuits, School of Hope Foundation was created as a US-based non-profit to provide fundraising and administrative support for St. Aloysius Gonzaga Secondary School.

Be part of something special

Every year St. Aloysius receives visitors from the US to take part in the annual St. Al's Day celebration. The experience is one of spiritual and cultural discovery that is enriched with the support of a Jesuit Chaplain.

what THEY SAY

Students' experience

“The power of the youth is the common wealth for the entire world. The faces of young people are the faces of our past, our present and our future. No segment in the society can match with the power, the idealism, the enthusiasm and the courage of young people.”
