Kefa Project

It Takes All of Us to Stop Child Homelessness

Our mission is to serve, empower, and advocate for at-risk youth through sustainable, quality sports ministry, which facilitates community, education, and ultimately spiritual growth.

Our vision is to see the youth of Rwanda come to know and love God so that they can become leaders who will change their country and the world.

Started in 2009, as Play For Hope, The Kefa Project is all about seeing at-risk youth transformed in every aspect of their lives. Kefa pronounced kay-fuh is a Rwandan spelling of Kepha or Cephas the name Jesus gave Peter when he was declared the rock. We want every child's life to built on a solid rock, a firm foundation.

We love sports. But we do so much more than sports. Our beliefs are rooted in the Nicene Creed. But to put it more simply we have been transformed by Jesus and want to share that same love with others.

Sports are an avenue for us to create families for at-risk youth in Rwanda. Our goal is to help them feel welcomed, no longer alone, to help them re-enter education both formally and informally, learn finance and business skills, be reconciled to their own families, to know God, and change themselves and then their communities.
