Kakos Kids
Our other formal partner is Kako’s Kids, a Haitian organisation that aims to improve the daily lives of disadvantaged children through sport and education.
We first heard about Kako a few years ago in the course of our work with Digicel in Haiti.
Jacques Bourjolly, aka Kako, is a famous Haitian comedian. Since its foundation in 2010, Kako’s Kids has renovated orphanages, built sports facilities and conducted several toys, clothes, books, and back-to-school drives.
Kako’s Kids also holds basketball summer camps for street children. During the COVID emergency, Kako provided over 1,000 drums to set up hand-cleaning stations for those without access to soap or clean water.
