Gracious Foundation: Schools and TVET Building and Equipping Programme

Bridging the Gap in Education and Vocational Training for a Better Kenya

Education is the foundation of a prosperous society, yet many public schools and Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) institutions in Kenya face significant challenges. At Gracious Foundation, we are committed to addressing these gaps by improving infrastructure, providing essential learning resources, and enhancing vocational training to empower communities and drive Kenya’s Vision 2030.

The State of Public Schools in Kenya

Public schools across Kenya, especially in rural and underserved areas, struggle with severe infrastructure deficits. Key challenges include:

Shortage of Learning Materials – Without textbooks, desks, and modern teaching tools, students are at a disadvantage.

Inadequate Classrooms – Overcrowded classrooms make learning difficult, affecting the quality of education.

Poor Facilities – Many schools lack proper sanitation, clean water, and safe learning environments.

Our Interventions in Schools:

✅ Construction and renovation of classrooms
✅ Provision of desks, books, and learning aids
✅ Improving sanitation and water access
✅ Teacher training and capacity building

Empowering Youth Through TVET for Vision 2030

Kenya’s Vision 2030 envisions a skilled workforce that can drive industrialization and economic growth. However, the TVET sector faces critical gaps, including:

• Insufficient funding and resources
• Shortage of qualified trainers
• Mismatch between skills taught and job market demands

A strong TVET system is crucial for reducing unemployment and equipping youth with market-relevant skills for both employment and entrepreneurship.

Gracious Foundation’s Role in TVET Development:

🔧 Supporting TVET institutions with modern equipment
🔧 Offering technical skills training aligned with industry needs
🔧 Promoting self-employment through entrepreneurship programs
🔧 Partnering with industries for practical apprenticeships

By strengthening TVET education, we help bridge the skills gap and ensure young people are prepared for local and global job markets.
