Streetwise evolved from a painting project at a private preparatory school in Nairobi, Kenya in January 1994. Street boys were bused from a slum to paint pots in the school's art room, supervised by the art teacher. These youngsters had not painted before and what was initially for enjoyment, developed into a money earner when the pots started selling... Main objectives: To develop social values so that boys and girls can be integrated into society and find employment. To provide them with basic numeracy, literacy and financial skills and marketable talents to enable them to become self sufficient as adults. To promote self esteem and confidence in their own abilities.
