The Edith Nyenze Foundation was founded and incorporated in Kenya in 2021 with a steadfast commitment to transforming the lives of marginalized populations, including women, youth, persons with disabilities, and other vulnerable members of society. Our work is guided by the belief that sustainable development is achieved when every individual, regardless of their circumstances, is empowered to realize their full potential.

The foundation addresses systemic barriers that perpetuate poverty by focusing on capacity building, advocacy, and access to essential resources. By implementing community-driven and inclusive programs, we aim to bridge the gap between opportunity and vulnerability, fostering resilience and self-reliance among those we serve.
