Let us buy a school to provide a good education for our children!
Let's Buy a School together
Empower 600 Children in Kenya with Quality Education
Funding Goal and Donation Options
To purchase the BAS Academy and ensure its long-term operation, we need 3 million KSH (around €200,000). We’ve created different donation options for our crowdfunding campaign so that everyone can contribute, no matter how big or small.
10 €

Your contribution brings us one step closer to buying the school. Every euro counts!

With €50, you help secure the school and change the lives of many children. You will receive a personal thank-you email from the kids.
500 €

Your donation not only supports the purchase of the school but also helps maintain daily operations. As a thank-you, you’ll receive updates about a specific classroom.
1000 €
School Sponsor
Your name will be listed as a supporter on our website and school. You will also receive a video with a personal message of gratitude from the children.
2000 €
Strategic Partner
For our most generous donors, we offer exclusive insights into the project. You’ll receive regular updates, personal invitations to online events, and will be recognized as a partner at the school.
Where can we find BAS (soon to be ULT) Academy?
The BAS Academy (small spot on the upper left side of the picture) is located very close to the Soweto Slum (bigger spot on the right side of the picture) and it would take around a 10 minutes walk for the kids to get to school in the morning. If you want to take a closer look yourself, where we’re located here you can find our coordinates.
Larger Donation Packages
Corporate Sponsorship
For companies looking to support us, we offer tailored sponsorship packages. Depending on the amount, a classroom can be named after your company, and your logo will be featured on our website and at the school. Let’s work together to shape the future of these children.
VIP Donor Packages
For private large donors, we offer exclusive acknowledgments such as personal letters from the children, invitations to school openings, or private updates on the project’s progress. You’ll become a lifelong part of our school community.
Let me tell you how we got to this point
Hi! My name is Lea
… founder of UNDER Lea’s TRUST in Germany and UNDER Lea’s INTERNATIONAL in Kenya. Since 2020, we’ve grown from a small food program to supporting over 600 children through school sponsorships. Our focus is education, but now, we’re ready to take a huge next step. So! Will you join us?
The challenge: Education or Survival?
We’ve partnered with over 70 schools and have seen firsthand what works—and what doesn’t. Some of our kids walk long distances to overcrowded classrooms with one teacher for 100 children. It’s not education, it’s survival. We want better for them. We’re fighting not just for access to education, but for quality education.
The opportunity: A school that can change lives
In May 2024, I visited Kenya and was approached with an incredible opportunity: the owner of BAS Academy offered to sell her school to us. She’s retiring and wants the school to continue supporting children, just as she has for years. To be honest, I didn’t see this coming. Our long-term plan was to build a school from scratch, and we’re in the process of buying land for it. But in Kenya, that can take years. With this offer, we can have a fully functioning school now—three buildings, 14 classrooms, a school bus, a van, and 17 teachers—all for 3 million KSH (around €200,000).
Why we need your help: Seize this once-in-a-lifetime deal
It’s an amazing deal, far below market price. She trusts us with her life’s work, and we need your help to make this happen.
Here’s where you come in: if 20,000 people donate just €10, we can buy this school and change lives in an instant. Let’s come together to make this dream a reality for these kids.
Every donation counts. Together, we can make a lasting difference.
