About

Our Story: Born from Necessity, Shaped by Dreams
Our Story
Born in the year 2000 as a sports team for boys who couldn’t fit into other teams, Kolwa Pacho CBO has evolved into something far greater than we ever imagined. What started as a simple soccer club has become a beacon of hope for youth in Kisumu County.
Our journey took a transformative turn in 2015. While our boys’ teams had become inactive, a group of determined girls from our village approached us with a dream—they wanted to start a girls' soccer team. In 2016, we officially launched our girls’ program, and these young women showed us what serious commitment looks like.

Today, we are proud to say that about 10 of our girls are pursuing higher education in universities, many through scholarships. But our impact goes beyond academics—we've created a comprehensive mentorship program that shapes young people into responsible, well-adjusted community members.
