ONE FAMILY ONE EARTH
Together for a better future of our children in Africa
At One Family One Earth, we are dedicated to providing comprehensive support to children and mothers in need. Our mission is to create a better future for all.
One Family One Earth is made out of a heartwarming three women super-force from Kenya, the two Austrian founders of the organisation and many more friends, supporters and family members.
Our mission
We help single mothers and their children, who have to grow up without a father and the financial aid of such. As this happens a lot, One Family One Earth is committed to supporting these families by funding the children’s school education, as well as providing resources to create a stable home situation.

Doing good together
One Family One Earth supports children and their mothers by providing essential resources and medicine to the community. One Family One Earth further provides funds for the children's education and therefore a brighter future with more professional possibilities.
Education
In Kenya, education is the most important condition for success in life. Even the simplest professions often require a positive diploma from a higher school. We therefore strive to finance the best possible education for our children. This also includes school uniforms, meals, and school buses, if the school is located at a greater distance from the parents' home. There are state schools that are free but these are often overcrowded with over 100 children per class. We therefore prefer to choose private schools. Fees vary between individual schools and increase with school levels. Depending on the children's individual circumstances, we decide which school they can attend. We then accompany the children until they can take up a career.
Essential resources
A roof over the head, food, clothes, beds, shoes, medical aid, basic living enhancement. One Family One Earth is dedicated to helping each person in the community as best as possible according to their individual needs.
Community
One Family One Earth, as the name suggests, presents a safe place and community where everybody can feel supported, respected and most importantly... loved.
