Testimonials

"Before Street Friends of Africa, the streets were my only home cold, scary, and endless. Mary's team showed up every weekend, shared meals, and really listened. They helped me find my family after years apart, and now I'm in school dreaming of being a mechanic. These aren't just helpers; they're family who believed in me when I couldn't."
JACTON KITUI
"Volunteering with Street Friends has been life-changing. Witnessing skeptical kids open up over Saturday chats at Michuki Park, then seeing 10 reunions happen it's pure magic. Their compassion and focus on real empowerment inspire me to give more. If you're passionate about youth, join this crew; the impact is immediate and forever."
DUSHMAN ABDALA
"When my son vanished to the streets, hope faded fast. But Street Friends of Africa's outreach brought him back patient visits, honest chats, and a reunion that mended our broken hearts. Their dedication to real change, not handouts, restored my boy. I'm forever thankful for their compassionate bridge-building."
