In 2024 and 2025, several members of Matthews UMC had the privilege of traveling to Kenya to witness firsthand the profound impact of Zoe Empowers. This Global Impact Partner works with vulnerable youth and their families impacted by the global orphan crisis in East African countries like Kenya, Zimbabwe, Malawi, and more. Through a three-year, locally-led program, participants become safe and healthy, skilled for long-term success, and able to lead meaningful lives within a supportive community.

Since 2007, Zoe Empowers has empowered over 214,953 young people! View the 2025 Virtual Mission Trip to Kenya to get to know our group or the Kenya Info Session with stories from the February 2024 trip.
