Ten programs.
Two continents.
One mission.
For more than three decades, Global Development Project has carried love and hope across borders β meeting real human needs wherever they are. Clean water, education and rescue across East Africa; a voice for hurting youth reaching all the way into the United States. We go where the need is, not just where itβs easy. This is the work, program by program.

Ten ways we show up β every single day.
Each program below is running right now because of donors and partners who believe distance is no excuse to look away. Explore the work, the people, and the change taking root.
π§Clean, safe water for communities where every drop once meant a long walk. Wells, boreholes and water points that transform daily life β and survival β for entire neighborhoods.
πA safe place for girls to learn, grow and dream. Founded alongside Dr. Phyllis Njoki Kagimbi, St. Rita lifts vulnerable girls out of poverty through the power of education.
πΈSkills, fellowship and a path to dignity and income. Through training and sisterhood, women find their footing β and lift their whole families with them.
π Three partner homes β Project of Hope, Compassionate Childrenβs Home and Good Samaritan β where orphaned and vulnerable children find shelter, family and love.
πSponsorship that follows a child from the classroom to a career β like Mercy, now interning at a hospital. Proof of what one sponsored education can become.
π€²When crisis hits, we move. Food, clothing and essential relief delivered with dignity to families and communities facing their hardest days.
πMentorship is the heartbeat of GDP. Leadership training, summits and mentors who walk beside young people as they discover who theyβre meant to become.
πGoing where others donβt. Quarterly field missions into Samburu County carry health, empowerment and a rescue pipeline into Kenyaβs most remote communities.
ποΈA central hub in Mombasa for training, summits, worship and gatherings β the home base where vision becomes action and community comes together across East Africa.
ποΈOur newest program: a trauma-informed voice space where young people across East Africa, the U.S. and beyond are finally heard β led by certified trauma counselors.
We go where the need is β not just where itβs easy.
Help doesnβt only flow one way. Global Development Project meets real needs across borders β wells, education and rescue throughout East Africa, and a lifeline for hurting young people reaching from Nairobi all the way into the United States through Unmuted. Wherever someone is unseen or unheard, thatβs where we show up.
Extending love and hope β one life, one community, one continent at a time.The heart of Global Development Project
