Suba Environmental Education of Kenya is a Kenyan NGO, funded through Kenya Islands Mission, Inc., a Tennessee State Corporation 501 (c)( 3), founded in 1996 in response to requests of local Kenyans for assistance in addressing their distressing environmental degradation. We are located in greater Suba, along the shores of Lake Victoria. 

 S.E.E.K. is a grass roots organization which believes that change can only be sustainable from the bottom up as the people themselves understand their problems and initiate and implement solutions. Real abundant life comes through the gospel of Jesus Christ and the faith, hope and love He brings.

S.E.E.K. (K.I.M.) networks with the government and other ogranizations for optimal results.

SUBA IS A PLACE OF BREATHTAKING NATURAL BEAUTY, and its inhabitants are talented and hospitable. Here lie Ruma National Park, home to the rare Roan Antelope, and the vast Lake Victoria, a great natural resource. This is a land of endless potential

YET IGNORANCE AND LACK OF ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP HAVE BROUGHT DEVASTATION. People are trapped in a web of hopelessness because of the great environmental degradation.

TROUBLING FACTS OF GREATER SUBA:

• One fourth of its 210,000 inhabitants are orphaned children.
• HIV/AIDS prevalence is 26%
• Life expectancy is 37 years.
• The majority of its people live on 75 cents (U.S.A.) a day or less.
• The rate of unemployment is 40%
• Deforestation has resulted in climate change with an alarming decrease in food production.
• Pollution of Lake Victoria and poor fishing practices have diminished fish populations.

   I was looking to purchase tickets for the benefit on September at the Nashville Palace featuring the Mandrell Sisters. Could you please forward that info to me? Thanks

   Dear David,
   Thank you for sharing your heart with its wonderful goals. We are located in Western Kenya on the coast of Lake Victoria near Mbita, in a rural area.
   Where are you? If in the USA, we suggest you look into ECHO (Educational Concerns for Hunger Organization) in Fort Myers FL, which is having a conference on your interests soon. Or you might get in touch with Travis Hughey who is a master of aquaponices. His organization is FAST. We encourage you to pursue these goals, as there is much need for them. God speed!
