Canopy Life International Information

Canopy Life International supports and implements educational and discipleship activities in East Africa, specifically the programs of Canopy Life Academy in Koma Hill, Kenya. Canopy Life Academy is a boarding school for vulnerable children in Kenya. We develop whole-hearted leaders to bring innovative solutions and businesses back to their rural communities.Less than 50% of Kenyan students will obtain a diploma or degree, and even these successful few face the insurmountable challenge of a 42% unemployment rate. Sadly, the education system is not equipping them with the skills or mindset they need to overcome these odds by creating jobs and opportunities for themselves. Canopy Life Academy gives vulnerable Kenyan children a place of peace and belonging where they can learn critical thinking, integrity and a bias towards action. We see a future where these children become godly innovative leaders who bring businesses and and solutions to their families and communities. Whether or not they attend college, Canopy Life students will have the skills to cultivate an idea to market, grow a healthy business and lead others with integrity. We believe a strong foundation of faith, family and business will equip these students to rise out of poverty and impact the African century.
