Donate our missionLearning Lions is a digital empowerment program, providing opportunities to learn, earn and innovate for young adults in rural Kenya.We started off in 2015 in Turkana County, Northern Kenya, where traditional sources of income are extremely limited due to its semi-arid environment, poor infrastructure and remote location. We have built an ICT model campus at the shores of Lake Turkana in 2020. Our vision is to bring such digital centers of opportunities to many other marginalised communities. Our concept is: if we can make it here, we can make it anywhere. learn more a wholistic path to digital opportunityTalented youthDonationsDonations   -  Talented youth LEARNING LIONSLearning Lions offers a 1-year digital training program for Africa’s rural youth.

Growing up, I always wanted to be a nurse, but one day my dream changed when I started to develop an interest in computers and how I could change the world using the device. When I got the opportunity of joining Learning Lions, I was very excited. I learned both technical and soft skills. Now I want to be among the best designers in the world. From a shy girl to a confident lady, I thank Learning Lions and Tech Dada – the Girls empowerment program at Learning Lions. Thank you for the opportunity!the training: from basic to advanced ABC Mobile Leap MOBILE LEAP At the Loropio campus as well as for other organisations at their facilities, Learning Lions offers a 6-week bootcamp called Mobile LEAP - Learning Earning and Problem-solving.
