"We sincerely thank HBI and Gulf African Bank for the support you have given these vulnerable pupils: Mohammed, Galma, Gregory, and Catherine, who were almost dropping out of school, but due to your support, they were able to join various High Schools."
"Thanks to the support of Hope Beyond Initiative and Gulf African Bank, I received a scholarship in 2014 that enabled me to pursue my education in secondary school. I excelled in my studies there, joined the University, and I am now a graduate." (Nov-Dec. 2024)
"This is to humbly acknowledge that I am a beneficiary of Hope Beyond Initiative and Gulf African Bank and to affirm that the organizations have given me wings to fly not only in my career, personal life, and family but also in benefiting from exposure to skills and to servanthood for humanity in many ways."

Statistics from the Kenya Poverty Report (2022)
Published in 2024
Nakuru, Bungoma, Kakamega, Nairobi, Turkana, and Kilifi have the highest concentration of poverty in Kenya. Youth are among the most poor in these counties.
HBI's Solution
Our Theory of change is grounded in the strong belief that If we deliver integrated entrepreneurship, education mentorship, civic governance workshops, and sports development programs embedded with tree-planting conservation drives to 1,500 vulnerable youth across Bungoma, Kakamega and Nairobi counties annually, then youth enterprise survival and self-employment will rise alongside high school completion rates, because holistic capacity building combined with sports engagement addresses the root causes of socio-economic exclusion while building environmental and civic responsibility.
HBI's experienced team, through strategic partnerships, delivers impactful initiatives that address critical poverty-inducing challenges faced by youth in these counties.
