MCC is launching a project to provide more than 50 schools in Kenya with 500 used computers, about eight to 10 computers for each school.
THis project is a partnership between MCC Kenya and Lari Memorial Peace Museum in the Lari District of Kenya. The Lari Museum promotes inter-ethnic dialogue and peace education in schools.
Kenya has 42 major tribes and the Lari Museum is starting peace clubs in at least one larger primary or secondary school in each tribe to build bridges of communication across tribal boundaries.

Pursuing peace
Peace and justice are at the heart of MCC's work. People around the world are building peace, often at great risk to their own lives. Christians are called to model Jesus' example of courageous peacemaking, and MCC workers and projects support people making peace across the globe.

Menno Santé

Ready to learn
Throughout the world, children and young people are ready to learn. But education remains out of reach for many – too tragically often because families can’t pay school fees or buy supplies or uniforms, because students must work or because schools don’t have enough classrooms or funds for teachers.
MCC supports creative, community-based education through the Global Family education sponsorship program. Each year MCC provides more than 100,000 school kits, which include pencils, notebooks and other items, to students around the world. MCC also has a number of workers in education-related assignments – from leading English classes in China or Egypt to teaching in high schools in Zambia. More about Global Family.
When parents and schools cannot afford basic school supplies, notebooks and pencils become precious commodities. Make an MCC school kit.
Water is life
A person can survive for weeks without food, but will die in a few days without water. Yet for many families around the world, this basic need is out of reach. Learn more about the need for safe, clean water and how MCC is working to help families and communities gain access to this vital resource.
Food for today and tomorrow
People everywhere should have enough food to live active, healthy lives. Yet high and rising food prices are making basic food staples unaffordable for hundreds of millions of people all over the world and pushing people into deeper levels of poverty.
We invite you to explore the root causes of hunger, to help MCC share food, a gift from God – and to consider your own food choices. More about food
Food for All

Consider your food choices
Through resources such as the World Community Cookbooks – including Simply in Season, Extending the Table and More-With-Less Cookbook – MCC invites people to explore their own patterns of eating and consumption and work to support food justice and small farmers. Sign up for a weekly recipe.
Each October MCC's mobile meat canner makes it's way through the provinces and with the help of volunteers in each community, the effort annually provides some 500,000 cans of meat for hungry people around the world. Learn more.
