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.

Empowering our Students Beyond Classroom

Empowering our students doesn’t stop when schools close.During this August break, our high school students have been actively engaged in educational programs that help them grow their mindset and make good use of their free time.

Empowering our students

Our programs offer mathematics tuition designed to strengthen our students understanding and boost their academic performance.

Beyond academics, we also focus on lifelong knowledge. These lessons give students the ability to make informed decisions. One important topic has been sex education. Students have learned about safe practices for those who are already sexually active, as well as where to access contraceptives responsibly.

As our students head back to school, we trust they will carry these lessons with them. At Ngong Road Children’s Foundation, we remain dedicated to empowering our students and supporting their journey towards a healthier future.
