Organization Information

Mission Statement

Our Mission is to alleviate the challenges stemming from economic, social, and cultural backgrounds by providing holistic support and fostering sustainable development within communities.

Description

Jenga means 'build’. JeViVo focuses on improving people’s lives in the community especially the vulnerable as well as linking them with other players to address the challenges they face.

JeViVo is a registered organization both in Kenya and Switzerland and is mainly concerned with the well-being of orphans and vulnerable children, mistreated women, widows, widowers, men, women, people with disability, and youths who are disadvantaged due to their economic, and social and cultural background.

We also engage in activities of environmental conservation such as planting trees, permaculture, and soil erosion prevention. The area faces various challenges, but many of them can be prevented at the village level. As the community becomes more and more developed, people will be exposed to less health, poverty, and illiteracy risks and enjoy a higher standard of living and, therefore higher quality of life.
