At The Alta Project, our name embodies our mission. “Alta” means to lift up, to elevate, or to rise above. Inspired by this vision, we are dedicated to empowering vulnerable communities to overcome challenges and create lasting change.
What began as a small initiative has grown into a global partnership-based international relief and development organization. We partner with local leaders in Maasai and Turkana villages, addressing seven critical challenges with tailored, community-driven solutions. From providing clean water to fostering sustainable livelihoods, our work transforms bad news situations into good news stories.
Our purpose is simple: to uplift, inspire, and help communities rise above adversity—one project, one life, and one village at a time.
Our Mission
Empowering Kenyan communities by addressing critical needs like clean water, education, and economic opportunities, working with local leaders to deliver sustainable solutions that build brighter futures for the Maasai and Turkana regions.
Our Vision
A brighter future for Kenya, where the Maasai and Turkana people thrive through access to clean water, education, and sustainable opportunities, fostering dignity and resilience in the face of challenges.
"We believe every community deserves hope and dignity. That’s why we work hand-in-hand with Kenya’s Maasai and Turkana people to deliver tailored, sustainable solutions—whether it’s clean water, education, or jobs—empowering them to rise and thrive."
