It’s all about life at Foundation4Life. The life of people. Especially of needy women and children in Kenya.
Foundation4Life supports single parent families in Kenya. These families are the poorest (monthly income up to € 20,-) and all mothers are HIV-positive. But they are very motivated and take every chance they get.

The successful 4-way method of F4L
The 4 in the name of the foundation does not only mean ‘for’ live, but also stands for 4 integrated methods to help these families:

1. Education for the children, because education means future! F4L pays the school fees and accompanying costs
2. Fair salaries for the mothers. Paid work means income to take care of themselves and their children.
3. Support orphans so they can finish school. Taking care of the children and meanwhile searching for their family.
4. Export of jewelry, produced in one of the F4L companies by the mothers. In Holland these jewelry are sold through www.sieraden4life.nl and shops.

This way Foundation4Life helps families from 4 angles. By giving structural help in this way, living conditions improve for already more than 200 women and children. Besides that Foundation4Life is involved in community work in the slums, such as food supply and sports activities.
