At Achungo, students find something different.
Children receive consistent care, education, daily meals, and a structured environment where they are known, supported, and where they plan to succeed. For students who need it, dormitory housing provides a safe place to live and study, and to support those preparing evenings for the national exams.

Children receive consistent education, daily meals, and a structured environment where they are known, supported, and expected to succeed. For students who need it, dormitory housing provides a safe place to live, study, and prepare for national exams.
Education is their pathway forward.
We walk with students from early childhood through secondary school and beyond — providing:
Two primary school campuses in Rodi and Imbo that are the top in the county
A middle school (junior secondary school) that is one of the best in the nation.
Dormitory housing for students needing stability and for all students grades 6 through 9, who study evenings for national exams.
Secondary school scholarships for all our graduates covering tuition, room and board, materials, and incidentals.
Mentorship and support through high school, college, and early careers

Family Service Trips
Travel to Kenya, connect with students, and experience the impact firsthand.Serve, learn, and be part of the mission.
Our Founder, Michael Nyangi lost his father at age seven, he experienced first hand how poverty can shape a child’s future. Rather than pursue a comfortable career after becoming a CPA, he began taking orphaned children into his own home.
In 2005, Achungo Children’s Centre was officially registered in Kenya.
The mission remains the same
What began with a handful of children has grown into one of the top-performing schools in Homa Bay County but our beliefs remain unchanged.
- No child should be abandoned.
- No child should be denied education.
- Every child is an achiever.
