Rite of Passage Program

Adopt a ROPER

Empowering the next generation through structured mentorship, rites-of-passage training, and cultural anchoring. Help a young person from an underserved community go through the full ROPES journey.

The ROPES Journey

Our ROPES (Rites Of Passage ExperienceS) program follows a structured cycle designed to guide youth from an urban slum or rural informal settlement into responsible, purpose-driven adulthood.

01

Journal & Enrollment

A ROPER begins their journey by enrolling with a ROPES journal — Kshs 500 for one, or Kshs 1,000 for three (discounted for this initiative).

02

Class Sessions & Activities

A full year of structured class sessions and activities covering our thematic areas: Transitions, Life Skills, and Sexuality.

03

Camp Experience

The culminating rites-of-passage camp at Camp Malta or Camp Oltepesi — full camp cost is Kshs 18,500, covered by sponsorship.

04

Certification & Community

Graduates receive a certificate and join a nationwide network — 80 churches currently run the ROPES transition program for ongoing support.

Every ROPER Deserves a Champion

Your sponsorship provides a journal, class sessions, camp costs, or a full year of support for one youth. Any amount helps.
