About Rotich T Foundation
Our Mission
The Rotich Foundation is principally committed to promoting education in collaboration with regional experts for K-16 school children within rural areas of Kenya. We see access to educational technology broadly defined as the cornerstone to achieving this goal. Therefore, building the infrastructure and employing trained personnel is central to achieve our objectives. The first phase of the Foundation will be to build library/resource centers to accommodate access to information in a knowledge-based environment, including development and construction of local facilities infused with internet-based and hard-copy sources of information and the development and recruitment of highly qualified staff accessible to school students. Supplying technological equipment such as computers, computer programs, and hot spot internet capabilities will be part of this mix. Plans for the first operational library/resource center and outreach is planned for Kabarnet, Baringo County, Kenya, by March 2025.
