Mt Olives Community Empowerment Centre is a community-led initiative based in Sibanga, Trans Nzoia County, Kenya, established to create opportunities for young people, women and other underserved members of the community to develop skills, access opportunities and participate meaningfully in their communities. The initiative is rooted in a community space that was previously used as Mt Olives School. The school served the local community for many years before becoming inactive. Today, the existing facilities provide an opportunity to transform an underutilised space into a vibrant centre for learning, skills development, community engagement and empowerment. Sibanga is located in a predominantly rural setting, where many young people and women face limited access to employment opportunities, practical skills training, digital resources, mentorship and avenues for developing sustainable livelihoods. Mt Olives Community Empowerment Centre seeks to respond to these challenges by creating a welcoming community space where people can learn, create, connect and develop their potential.
Priority improvements include:
• Painting and refurbishment of classrooms.
• Cleaning and restoration of existing spaces.
• Furniture and learning equipment.
• Digital equipment and connectivity.
• Safe accommodation facilities for volunteers.
• Basic sanitation and hygiene improvements.
• Landscaping and outdoor spaces.
• Electrical and security improvements.
• Creation of suitable spaces for training and community activities.
The transformation will take place progressively as resources and partnerships become
available.
