Habitat & Education Promotion creates opportunities for children and communities through education, affordable youth sports, and environmental stewardship. Together with volunteers, schools, families, and community partners, we help children build healthier, stronger and more hopeful futures.
From Omaha neighborhoods to rural communities in Togo, our programs connect education, healthy activity, environmental responsibility and community participation.
Children thrive when they have opportunities to learn, stay active, belong and grow in healthy communities. Our programs bring those opportunities together.
Our affordable and inclusive soccer programs give children opportunities to stay active, develop skills, build confidence, practice teamwork and experience belonging.

Working with schools and communities, we plant and care for trees that provide shade, food, environmental education and long-term community resources.

In 1995, in rural Togo, a young Kodjo Drofenou watched university students from his village recognize top-performing children with school supplies. The simple gesture changed how he viewed education.
Years later, that experience helped inspire Habitat & Education Promotion. What began as a desire to encourage students has grown into programs connecting education, youth sports and environmental stewardship in Omaha and Togo.
