Rising Hockey Star Beres Thrives with Support from NRCF

Here is an inspiring story of Beres, a rising hockey star and high school student reaching his greatest potential through consistent education and personal support from the Ngong Road Children’s Foundation (NRCF).

Hockey star

Beres comes from a family with limited resources. He faced many challenges that could have held him back. But thanks to NRCF, he got the support he needed. They helped with school fees, offered guidance, and gave him space to grow his hockey skills. With this support, Beres began to shine.



He has always performed well in his studies. Recently, he made headlines in sports when he played like a pro during a hockey competition. Thanks to his skill and determination, his team qualified to represent their school at the national championships in Mombasa County.

This achievement brings Beres one step closer to his dream of becoming a professional hockey coach.Beres’s journey shows what is possible when talent meets opportunity. As he pursues his dream, we are reminded that with the right support, every child can rise. We are very proud of Beres and will continue cheering our rising hockey star on every step of the way.
