Who We Are
About 100 Humanitarians
100 Humanitarians International is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization based in South Jordan, Utah, serving communities across Kenya through five core programs: Sustainable Food (Garden Towers), Clean Water, Education, Health & HopeKits, and Economic Opportunities. Founded in 2015, we partner with Maasai and rural Kenyan families to create lasting, community-led change.
100 Humanitarians International walks alongside families in Kenya until they no longer need us, building sustainable food, clean water, education, health, and economic opportunity that stays with the community.
We're not outsiders looking in — we're partners walking alongside. For years we've built clean water systems with families, planted garden towers with mothers, funded classrooms with teachers, and delivered health supplies alongside communities full of skill, resolve, and ideas of their own. We don't do charity. We do partnership.

How We Do It
The Programs
Five pillars. One promise: every project is built with the community, not for them.
Sustainable Food
Kneeling in the dirt. Hands full of seedlings. Her children watching. In four weeks, this tower feeds a family. You built that.

Clean Water
Imagine a mother who no longer has to choose between a three-hour walk and her daughter's safety. Clean water changes everything — every morning, every meal, every life.
Learn More →
Education
A girl opens a book for the first time. A teacher stays because someone believed in her. This is where futures are written — one classroom at a time.
Learn More →
Health & HopeKits
A teenage girl misses school every month — not because she doesn't want to learn, but because she can't afford pads. We show up with HopeKits, mobile dental care, and the belief that health is a right, not a privilege.
Learn More →
Economic Opportunities
A mother saves with her neighbors. A young man learns to lead a team. A village welcomes guests and earns a living from its own culture. Dignity grows when income grows.

Your Impact
Every Dollar Has a Name
This isn't a donation. It's a handshake across an ocean. Here's exactly where your generosity lands.
$25
Feeds a Family
One garden tower. Seedlings in the dirt. A mother watches her children eat vegetables they grew together.
$150
Brings Clean Water
No more three-hour walks. No more choosing between water and safety. One tap changes a family's mornings forever.
$50/mo
Sponsors a Student
Monthly giving covers fees, uniforms, and supplies — and lets us walk a student from identification all the way to a high school diploma.
$20
Saves a Girl's Life
One HopeKit gives a girl reusable period care, dignity, and the confidence to stay in school instead of dropping out.
$250
Launches a Livelihood
Seeds a Sustainable Circle so neighbors can save together, start small businesses, and lead their own community out of poverty.
The Steadiest Kind of Help
Become a Monthly Partner
Monthly giving is what lets our Kenyan directors plan a year ahead instead of a week. $15 a month keeps a girl in school. $25 a month puts a garden tower in a new family's yard every month.
