Journey4YOUth is a 501(c)3 non profit organization founded by Brian and Katie Ernst. In 2010, Brian & Katie spent almost three months living in a mud hut in Kaswanga Village (Rusinga Island, Kenya). After this experience they dedicated 10% of their income (as well as the profit from various handcrafts sold on the merch table) to the various programs Journey4YOUth supports including education, empowerment, rain water harvesting, orphan and widow care.
In 2010, they began with 35 children. In 2018, Journey4YOUth now provides 105 primary school scholarships, 10 high school scholarships and 4 special needs scholarships. These scholarships include new shoes and a custom tailored uniform and the high/special needs school scholarships include full boarding.

Journey4YOUth does not have an office or much overhead. Brian and Katie volunteer their time and do not take a salary. The only person on staff who makes a salary is Salmon Osogo (who is the on the ground coordinator in Kenya).
Together, they have been able to raise over $160,000 for Journey4YOUth and other non profits in the USA and around the world.
