Since early education is vital, Henny’s Kids supports elementary (primary) schools. By donating laptops loaded with programs, solar panels to power the computers, textbooks for the children, and training for the teachers, Henny’s Kids invests in youngsters.  Two of Henny’s Kids’ earliest projects are in the Zambezi region.

Soccer Balls for Rural Schools

To play soccer, children in rural villages and schools fashion soccer balls out of plastic bags tied with twine. When some Henny's Kids donors noticed this on a visit, they gifted the schools with real soccer balls. The result: pure joy for everyone.
