After Martha Wamae passed away in mid-2020, several children whom she supported in their education reached out to her family, hoping that the support they had received from Martha would continue. As a result, Martha’s children, Andrew and Ann, decided to carry on their mother’s legacy of transforming lives by providing financial aid to underprivileged but bright and well-behaved children. Although the foundation was not officially registered until 2022, Martha’s family took it upon themselves to educate two students while they waited for the registration and launch. The foundation was eventually launched and dedicated to the Lord on June 18th, 2022.

Rebecca is a student from the Maasai land who received education support from Martha. Rebecca’s late mother had met Martha during one of her many mission trips to Maasai land, and the two became close friends. Martha took it upon herself to educate Rebecca, who was in her second year of secondary school when Martha passed away. Rebecca was one of the two students whom Martha’s family supported until the completion of their secondary education.Rebecca was the first beneficiary of The Martha Wamae Foundation when she began attending college. She is currently pursuing a diploma in cosmetology at Queens College.

Moses is Rebecca’s elder brother, and he had a separate sponsor for his secondary education. Moses has a strong desire to become a travel and tourism guide, and The Martha Wamae Foundation is currently in the process of registering him and facilitating his admission to Nairobi Institute of Business Studies (NIBS).
