Become a Trainer

At Bringing Smiles Foundation, we work with children and parents in Mathare to prevent child sexual abuse through community-led training. We're looking for university students who care deeply about children's safety, communicate well, and want to grow as trainers and changemakers.

If selected, you'll go through a full training program before you ever step into the field, and you'll receive a stipend for each session you facilitate.

This is meaningful, sometimes emotionally heavy work. Please answer honestly — we're looking for the right fit, not the perfect CV.

Application takes about 10–15 minutes. Have your ID number and one reference ready.
