About Us

Empowering Rural Dreams: Transforming Lives Through Education
Introduction: Welcome to Good Villages, an established 501(c)(3) tax exempt non-profit organization headquartered in Oviedo, Florida, with a compelling mission that transcends boundaries and alters destinies. At our core, we hold an unwavering belief: education stands as the gateway to a brighter tomorrow. Our dedication is resolute, aimed at providing both economic and educational resources to uplift the lives of underserved rural communities, with a special focus on Migori County, Kenya.
The Challenge: Deep within the heart of Kenyan villages, educational opportunities are a rarity, particularly for women and girls. In Migori County, our focal point, there exists a severe scarcity of schools, and those that do exist remain ill-equipped to meet the burgeoning educational needs. Shockingly, 20 percent of residents have never been afforded the privilege of formal education, and only 15 percent have had the opportunity to attain a high school-level education. The gaping chasm in educational access serves as a stark reality that stifles the potential of countless bright minds.
The Opportunity: In Western Kenya, where Migori County thrives, a world of cultural and trade significance unfolds as a vital link to Lake Victoria, the Serengeti, Uganda, and Tanzania. These rural villages harbor vast untapped potential, poised to make significant contributions to the local economy. Yet, this potential remains dormant, stifled by the prevailing lack of access to quality education.
Your Impact: By contributing to our Education Scholarship Program, you possess the extraordinary power to:
  • Transform Lives: Your support has the potential to transform dreams into reality, ensuring that no brilliant mind remains ensnared by the constraints of financial hardship.
  • Cultivate Economic Prosperity: Education is the bedrock of economic development. Your investment in education today will yield prosperity for these rural communities tomorrow.
  • Empower Women and Girls: When you champion scholarships, you empower women and girls to rise as leaders, entrepreneurs, and change-makers within their communities.
