Education Support
Learning support, mentorship and school-readiness help for children and youth.
A new start for children and youth in Kenya
Every child deserves a chance to learn, play and grow.
Wake Vocational Center is a start-up NGO opening doors for children and young people through education support, sports talent development and digital and AI learning.
Who we are
Wake Vocational Center is a community organisation built around a simple belief: talent is everywhere, but opportunity is not. We work with children and young people who need support to stay in school, develop their gifts and prepare for the world of work — including the digital world.
We are starting small and honest. This site tells you what is running now, what is planned, and how you can help.
What we do
Three pillars guide our work, with a fourth in development. Each programme page says clearly what is running and what is planned.
Planned
Sports Talent Development
Coaching and development for young athletes — starting with football.
Planned
Digital & AI Learning
Digital literacy, coding basics and safe, supervised use of AI tools for young learners.
Planned
Environment
Tree planting, clean-ups and school gardens — caring for the places children grow up in.
Why we started
Too many children leave school without the skills, confidence or support they need. Too many talented young athletes never meet a coach. And while the world moves toward digital and AI-driven work, many young people have never touched a computer.
Wake Vocational Center was founded to close those gaps — starting where we are, with what we have, and growing with our community.
Our plan for the first 12 months
A start-up earns trust by showing its plan. Here is what we are working toward.
-
Months 1–3
Foundation
Complete registration, recruit founding volunteers, and confirm a venue for learning sessions.
-
Months 3–6
First programmes
Begin weekend education support sessions and a first sports training group.
-
Months 6–9
Digital learning
Launch digital literacy sessions with donated laptops and tablets from our wish list.
-
Months 9–12
Review and grow
Report back to the community and partners, then expand what works.
Help us open the door
We are looking for volunteers, partner organisations and supporters who can give equipment, time or skills. Whether you can coach, teach, donate a laptop or simply spread the word — there is a place for you.
