We need more people like Alfonce 🇰🇪
We met Alfonce at our Bitcoin Education Unconference in Kenya, and his energy and dedication left a lasting impression.
Alfonce is the driving force behind Beyond Adversity Academy, bringing free Bitcoin education to children and young people in rural Kenya.
And he's already making a difference.
Through two education cohorts, his initiative has reached over 40 young people. Two additional Bitcoin bootcamps introduced 129 children to Bitcoin through games, storytelling, and interactive learning.
But Alfonce doesn't stop there.
He also runs the Beyond Adversity BTC Podcast, connecting educators, builders, and communities across Africa and beyond.
And while teaching others, he keeps learning himself. In May, he joined our Educator Training Program to further develop his skills.
This is what decentralized Bitcoin education looks like. Local leaders taking ownership, sharing knowledge, and creating opportunities where they're needed most.
Imagine what we could achieve with someone like Alfonce in every rural community around the world.
Support the movement. Fund what works.
