What We Do

Operation Imprezza is a UK based charity (No:1148240) supporting Imprezza Academy, a school for pupils based in Western Kenya.

Many children in rural locations can’t attend school because it is too far from their homes. Along with day students, Imprezza Academy also has boarding facilities so that students living over 2 hours walk from the site will still be able to gain an education. As many of the students who attend the Academy are destitute, orphaned, malnourished or HIV+, Imprezza offers healthcare, food and even a permanent home to pupils.

Current Situation

We currently have just under 320 secondary students of which around 300 board. Our total numbers attending school will continue to increase year on year as will our borders. We desperately need another dormitory.

We have students in Forms 1, 2, 3 and 4 (equivalent to Years 10, 11, 12, and 13 in the UK). The school is aiming to become self-sufficient by 2020.
Kenyan teachers are employed at the school and deliver an exciting and developing curriculum.
