Sauti Kuu helps young people develop a wide range of skills such as personal development, self-esteem, confidence, empathy, tolerance, teamwork, decision-making and much more. In teaching these skills, Sauti Kuu relies particularly on the positive impact of sport. It is used to break down cultural and social barriers. In addition, sports act as a powerful medium to engage and effectively mobilize large numbers of youth. Targeted character-building workshops additionally ensure that the young people can finally admit to themselves that they have the right to lead a better life - and claim this right.

Through Sauti Kuu, children from the poorest backgrounds are given the opportunity to attend a secondary school and to graduate from an otherwise almost impossible school. Young people who achieve above-average school-leaving qualifications should, through sponsors, also be given the opportunity to complete an apprenticeship at a college, vocational school or to study at a university. The completion of the training opens the door to a paid job for the young people.

Food shortages are a major problem in rural Kenya, largely because agriculture, especially as a source of income, is not widespread. Many young people flee from the countryside to the cities because they hope for a better life there. A fatal fallacy, because most people there live in poverty in slums. Sauti Kuu specifically supports people in rural areas to recognise and use their locally available resources to improve their living situation. To do this, the organization shows smallholder families how to make the best use of their land while being ecologically responsible. Under the 'Grow to Eat' and 'Grow to Earn' projects, they learn composting and the basics of organic farming. The core message behind this pillar is 'use what you have to get what you need'.
