Stop the Bullet! Peace Project

Stop the Bullet! Peace Project

The post-election violence in January 2008 that scorched Mathare Valley, destroyed homes and businesses and took many lives opened the eyes of many. The unthinkable had happened and the need to prevent the emergence of future conflicts is critically urgent. Many youth in Mathare Valley were involved in the violence as perpetrators, as victims, or as both. Youth involved with Maji Mazuri did not engage in violence and instead initiated activities to promote peace and community cohesion during and right after the conflict erupted.

Kiserian

Kiserian

The farm project was initiated in an effort to establish an income generating strategy that could aid in the realization of Maji Mazuri as a self-sustaining charitable organization.  The farm seeks to reach out to local community with agricultural skill training and will expand to include a resource center and commercial farming. A clinic has also been established to cater for the medical needs of the community. Currently the kiserian project runs its activities on wind, solar and biogas energy.

Become an Ambassador

Wanna make a difference right in your own backyard? We are looking to support small, local events and parties that you may do at your school, business or any other group you are involved in. As an ambassador you will be able to connect with others who are passionate about global change and social justice, talk about meaningful issues and start fundraisers in your school or community to make a difference.

If you are in high school or college you will get great resume experience. You will learn how to organize, make decisions, and implement your own ideas. You will get to contribute to development while learning about other cultures, and most importantly, promote awareness of a major humanitarian need. We sincerely hope you decide to become an ambassador… the world needs your help. Let's make a difference together!
