Giving kids a hope and a future.

Supporting children through ministry and education.

Torchgrab Africa is committed to bringing hope and a brighter future to vulnerable children in Nairobi's slums through holistic education and ministry.

From Pre-K through 9th Grade, we empower students with life-changing education that goes beyond the classroom. Our sustainable nutrition initiatives ensure every child has the energy to learn and grow. Grounded in Christian values and Gospel teachings, we create an environment where young children flourish and faith takes root.

We turn POVERTY into POSSIBILITY.

2024 Torchgrab Africa Annual Report

In 2024, your support was the foundation of our success. Your contributions of time, resources, and heart enabled us to offer transformative, Christ-centered learning and whole-child support to the vulnerable children and communities we serve in the slums of Nairobi, Kenya

In Loving Memory of Jill Burnham

Torchgrab Africa honors the life and legacy of Jill Burnham, a beloved friend and ministry partner who left us too soon. Jill's unwavering faith, compassion, and dedication were a guiding light in our mission to serve others. We are profoundly grateful for the love she shared, and we carry her memory in our hearts as we press forward with the vision she so deeply believed in.

Ministry and Outreach

At Torchgrab, our mission to give children a hope and a future extends past simply providing an education. Through ministry outreach and opportunities to engage in church and learn about the Bible, we bring children the lasting hope of faith and a future rooted in Christ.

 

Education and Opportunities

Torchgrab Africa partners with Petra School on the Rock in Nairobi, Kenya. We create and support bespoke education programs to address the needs of students and their communities. From our school library and STEM and technology program to music, art and life-skills courses, we work hard to ensure students are prepared for the future and have a strong education foundation.

 

Support for Students and Communities

Education thrives within the framework of a supportive community. Our approach goes beyond the classroom to provide students with the resources and care they need to excel.
