About us
Empower Together Kenya Foundation was started in March 2012 to help Community Based Organisations in Kenya to realize their goals.
The starting of ETKF was informed by the rapid increase in the gap between the rich and the poor, especially the ones in the local villages. By partnering with the local community based organisations, lack of water, health facilities and lack of school fees for the orphaned & needy children will be addressed. Our main goal is to develop and support sustainable income generating projects for the local CBO that will enable them have a stable livelihood. This will in turn bridge the gap between the rich and the poor as the local community shall have access to clean drinking water, health facilities and orphaned & needy children shall have access to education.
