Beat the Streets Cleveland Kenya Mission Trip
Beat the Streets Cleveland Kenya Mission Trip
August 8, 2023 - August 24, 2023
Kenya is a beautiful country with history, culture, and tradition. During this trip, our youth will have the opportunity to train, compete, and visit many historical sites throughout the country. The 2-week immersive experience will take place in Nairobi, Mombasa, and a short visit to Egypt in which our youth will assist in various projects.
During this amazing journey, we will be taking a group of underserved, young people from Northeast Ohio to learn about the Egyptian and Kenyan cultures, participate in educational programming, and sports activities, and build lasting relationships with their peers. Moreover, our work will equip Kenya youth and leaders with the resources to build amateur wrestling programs as an offering in public schools and universities. We have received support from the United States Embassy in Kenya, the United States International University of Africa, and the Kenya Wrestling Association. Your support will assist us in creating a memorable life-changing immersive experience for 11 Beat the Streets Cleveland youth.
The goal of this trip is to promote cultural exchange and build bridges between our youth and the people of Egypt and Kenya. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for our youth to gain a better understanding of the world and its people.
