Kick it with Kenya is a program focused on bringing vital public health education to youth in Kenya through soccer. Youth that are eager and willing to learn will change a community.
Throughout a weeklong conference, youth will attend lessons on subjects such as (but not limited to) HIV/AIDs, malaria, communicable diseases, sanitation, nutrition and more.
During the week, soccer teams will be formed among the youth and a tournament will be played. The public is invited to attend the games where half-time messages will be presented on peace, empowerment and other inpirational topics.
