Pillars of Hope
Unafaa is Swahili for you matter
Widows
Single mothers and widows in Kenya face a multitude of challenges, including poverty, social stigma, lack of legal protection, and health issues.
There are over 8 million widows in Kenya.
Over 30% of all households in Kenya are headed by women.
The NHC will expand Unafaa’s RenU Workshop, equipping women with skills and resources to rebuild their lives.
AIC - KIkopey
Sunday School Meal Program: Unafaa serves 100 meals every Sunday to children and youth at AIC Kikopey’s Sunday School, providing both nourishment and a sense of community.
Counseling, Mentoring, and Discipleship: AIC Kikopey supports Unafaa with spiritual counseling, life mentorship, and discipleship for individuals in all programs, helping them grow in faith and resilience.
Ordinary People, Extraordinary Call: Both organizations believe in empowering everyday people to answer their calling and make an extraordinary impact through service and mentorship.
Aged-Out Orphans
Unafaa is the ONLY NGO in the Nakuru district dedicated to helping aged-out orphans—young adults who no longer qualify for traditional orphanage care and face overwhelming challenges:
10,000-15,000 orphans age out every year with a lack of education, housing, or job opportunities.
Only 10-15% of these aged-out orphans will succeed independently.
