In the heart of Kimintet Ward, Transmara South, surrounded by the rolling hills and heritage of Maasai land, something remarkable is happening.
Three hectares have been generously set aside by the community for a powerful initiative. Education.
Kimintet Sidai Academy is rising, not just as a school, but as a center of transformation for generations of Maasai children.
And with your support, we can bring this vision to life.

Why This School Matters — And Why It Needs You
On these three hectares, we are building:
8 modern classrooms
A fully-equipped ICT and innovation center
A tree nursery for climate action and enterprise
A community chapel and counseling space
Future plans for a boarding facility for girls, a library, and more
This land - once quiet and underused - is now a beacon of hope.
But bricks alone don’t build futures. People like you do.

With Your Help, We Will
1. Open Doors for Maasai Children: In a region where many walk long distances to attend school, or don't attend at all, your gift makes education local, safe, and life-changing.
2. Empower Girls and Young Mothers: We are creating a place where young women are lifted, not left behind. Where teenage mothers can return to school, and girls can grow into confident, educated leaders.
3. Create Jobs and Strengthen Families: From builders and cooks to teachers and security staff, the academy is generating jobs, income, and dignity for local families across Kimintet.
4. Nurture Sustainability and Innovation: Our Tasaru Tree Nursery and ICT lab will equip students to protect their environment and explore technology while staying rooted in their culture.

A Community-Led Movement on Maasai Land
This initiative is not driven by outsiders, it is a grassroots dream, owned and led by the local community. Every decision reflects the values, struggles, and aspirations of the people of Kimintet.
We’ve given the land. We’ve drawn the vision. Now, we’re asking: Will you stand with us?

Your Partnership Can Build Classrooms. And Change Lives.
By supporting Kimintet Sidai Academy, you’ll do more than fund a school, planting hope in Maasai soil, where it will grow for generations.
Join us. Together, let’s turn three hectares into a legacy of learning, healing, and transformation.
The First Step
We are thrilled to announce the start of this intitaitve and begin collecting donations. Initial funds raised will be dedicated to building a solar powered electric fence around the school area, and covering permitting and architectural planning. Below is an outline of the estimated bill of quantities and design pictures.
