We are EcoMoran
We hope this helps you to get to know us a bit more.
Eco Moran is an initiative that focuses on providing wholesome, informative, interactive and enjoyable environmental education to disadvantaged and marginalized children specifically between the ages of 6 and 12. “Moran” is a Maasai word that means “Warrior”.
As part of the learning experience, we aim to take the children on short trips (excursions, hiking etc.) where they can appreciate nature and experience first-hand the importance of nature as a build-up to what they have learnt during our sessions. We collaborate with Let’s Drift for our eco trips.
If you believe in our cause to provide marginalized children with education for sustainable development and would like to partner or provide financial/non-monetary support, we would love for you to get involved as a partner or sponsor for our environmental initiative.
Kindly email us at info@ecomoran.org with the subject line: RE: Partner or RE: Sponsor
We would love for you to join us as an EcoMoran volunteer.

Please note that we onboard volunteers on a roll-out basis.
Each project, which is a placement within a children’s home or primary/elementary school, takes place over a period of 6-7 months and we teach the children using the EcoMoran curriculum. Each month focuses on a pillar of sustainability and its corresponding primary activity. For example, in the first month, we teach the children about sustainable and healthy eating, how food travels, composting, and the children set up an organic kitchen garden as the primary activity.
While we primarily focus on disadvantaged children from children’s homes, we are expanding our operations to primary schools.
As part of the lesson on food sustainability, we teach the children about the benefits of and how to compost. Using the compost made together with the children over a period of 6 weeks, we set up on organic kitchen garden where we plant.
