Students Shoulder-to-Shoulder provides high school students with the opportunity to live and serve “shoulder-to-shoulder” with expert non-profit leaders and their communities, working directly on projects to make a long-lasting impact. Kenya provides the perfect location for students to have an immersive experience where they can learn, first hand, about some of the issues that the country faces and how local organizations are working to address them.&nbsp;

Shoulder to Shoulder: Kenya

Students Shoulder-to-Shoulder’s mission is to inspire and support generations of ethical leaders. In their first decade Students Shoulder-to-Shoulder has enrolled over four hundred high school students in dynamic, experiential courses in global citizenship. Each year, the organization sends over one hundred high school students and course instructors from across the nation to trusted NGO partners working on four continents. This good fortune is generated from inspiring relationships with our Global Schools Coalition, NGO leaders, business partners, philanthropists, and alumni – All working as an organization of partners, creating shared value in service of the global good.
