In Homa Bay County, Kenya, several clans have initiated community-funded programs to pay school fees for vulnerable children, ensuring they remain in education. These collective efforts aim to address the perennial challenge of school fees and provide an alternative to often insufficient government or individual aid.

• The Kaonje clan in Rachuonyo East raised Sh800,000 this year, benefiting 80 secondary school learners with Sh10,000 each.
• The Kowili clan in Rangwe, operating as Kowili Education Recovery, collected Sh3 million to pay fees for over 500 Grade 10 learners.
• The Auma Nyar Agoro group in Rachuonyo North mobilized resources to provide Sh5.3 million in bursaries to 1,200 needy students.
• Businessman Mohamed Abdul Ramadhan individually issued cheques worth Sh1.23 million to support 322 needy learners across seven wards.
