The Maisha Project

Organization Description: 

The Maisha Project is a 501 (c) 3 based in Oklahoma City. We transform lives and empower communities by providing lasting solutions to address poverty, hunger, disease and under-education.

Through a series of providential events, Swedish citizen Anna Lanson came to Kisumu, Kenya and gave Maishas founder Beatrice Williamson a scholarship for education, beginning a legacy of hope. By engaging in relationship and funding her education, Anna gave Beatrice a chance to succeed in life, tell her story and found Maisha.

We invite you to have the same opportunity to transform lives by becoming a part of the Maisha Story.
