About March to the Top - Africa
March to the Top - Africa centers its giving on Kenyan communities, with work that ties together health, education, and conservation. The foundation’s program descriptions point to a mix of medical missions, orphanage and school support, scholarship help, and wildlife conservation partnerships, all delivered through named local and mission-based organizations. That pattern shows a funder built around direct project support rather than broad thematic statements alone. Among the clearest examples is its support for New Hope – AINA, where the foundation backs residential care for children, a primary school, and an onsite clinic. It also funds a pediatric heart mission in Nairobi through MEAK partnership, reflecting a practical role in specialized medical care for children. On the conservation side, the foundation supports Kenya Wildlife Trust, Northern Rangelands Trust, Ewaso Elephant conservation, and related community activities. Creative Visions adds another dimension, linking arts education with human rights education and media resources for youth in Kenya and South Africa. Across these programs, March to the Top - Africa funds both human services and environmental work, with a strong emphasis on implementation through partners already working on the ground.
