Our Programs: Making a Difference Every Day
Learning Management System

We provide online courses and resources to teach digital skills, entrepreneurship, and financial literacy—tools to help young people thrive in today’s economy.

SHIFT Forward Centers

Our physical centers in East Africa are dedicated to helping communities access education, technology, and business resources. These centers create spaces where people can learn, innovate, and collaborate.

Venture Studio

We support aspiring entrepreneurs in launching and growing their businesses through mentorship, training, and access to investment opportunities.

Our Impact: Real Stories, Real Change

At SHIFT, we believe that change starts with each person. Just like the Bible teaches us that we can’t put new wine into old wine skins, we know that to grow, we need to think differently. Similarly, Confucius, a great teacher, focused on teaching his students how to think before showing them how to do a job.

Why Choose SHIFT?

SHIFT is not just another education program. We combine cutting-edge technology, real-world business strategies, and a deep connection to the communities we serve. Our unique blend of digital learning, in-person centers, and business support systems ensures that we meet people where they are—and help them go where they want to be.

Our partners fuel progress and empower communities.

Join SHIFT in empowering the next generation of African entrepreneurs and leaders. Whether you donate, volunteer, or become a member, your contribution makes a lasting impact.
