Upeo Discovery
About Upeo Discovery
Upeo is a Kiswahili word meaning Peak.
At Upeo Discovery, we help children from underprivileged communities in Nairobi to reach Peak Potential. We are a non-profit organization offering digital skills and mentoring in Nairobi’s Mukuru Kwa-Njenga slums in Kwa-Njenga Primary School.
Upeo was founded in 2016 by Eddie Kago and Francis Indimuli and has since seen close to 400 primary school children of ages 9-14 benefit from our training.
Children are taught basic computer and programming skills and coaching using life lessons. Programming is taught using MIT Scratch
