npyt Vision is:

A world where children enjoy all their basic rights; especially the right to be a child.

npyt Mission:

Assist children in need while developing communities enabling them to better care for their own children.

npyt Message:

npyt is committed to transparency at all levels of operation and practices ´Result Based Management´ ensuring projects are monitored, evaluated and best practices established enhancing project development and impact. npyt also respects the religious integrity of all individuals and has no political, racial or other bias whatsoever.

Why npyt:

npyt holds the best interests of the child as paramount.

We know our customers; those we can help and those we cannot.

Vulnerable children are assisted through community projects, not institutions.

We encourage community led development.

npyt is the only independent, non religious organisation working with vulnerable children in Trans Nzoia District of Kenya. We are therefore the only organisation in the District that affords children their human right to freedom of religion.

We produce results - since January 2000:

358 children have been through NPYT residential projects, only 15 of them ran away.

112 youths have been through our Vocational Training programmes. 90% of them are working.

Two registered nurses, one social worker, a mechanical engineer and a lab technician have graduated through NPYT and all are ex street children.

Now Consider:

Is there is any real hope of the street children phenomenon disappearing in the foreseeable future? The economic factors that push children onto the streets and keep them there are not confined to local or short-term trends but are the result of national and global economics. Thus, perhaps controversially, one must consider the right of the child to be a street child. That considered you now understand that the rights afforded other children must be extended to, and maintained at street level. To do this we need you.
