RISE UP WITH MICRO-FINANCE PROJECT

John Shaw is a unique, rapidly growing community, non-governmental and non-profit organization dedicated to building a better society through innovative and sustainable projects that strengthen communities and promote the well-being of impoverished children and families in Kenya and around the world.

We are unique -- a unique charity -- because we are a diverse group of men and women who share a focus, a purpose, and a commitment to alleviating pain, poverty, injustice, and oppression by helping people build productive and strong communities.

All over Kenya, people are concerned about the quality of life in their communities.Problems such as out-of-school children, broken families, child Labour, teenage pregnancy, violence against women, rape of girls, unemployment, corruption and insecurity all affect the strength of communities.We are here to create sustainable solutions to these problems -- to build a safer, better society where all people, everywhere, can live with dignity.
