Kenya Project
Kenya Project
CHATS has partnered with Camp Ohana, a nonprofit in Africa, to connect Hawaii-based speech and language resources to kids in Kenya!
How? By sharing aloha, friendship, and trust via virtual sessions; providing tablets, speech apps, Wifi, and communication with speech-language professionals
Why? Because kids have undiagnosed speech-language challenges in a less-than nurturing environment
When? It is happening NOW. A tablet has been hand-delivered to the kids and Wifi structure/access is being set up this summer 2024; we are in talks with local speech professionals
CHATS founder, Raphael, was awarded funding from the 2024 Taco Bell Foundation as an Ambition Accelerator Seed Prize Awardee for his “Bridge of Aloha” Kenya initiative.
