The Change We Drive
What we do
Compassion Kenya has been a leader in holistic child and youth development since 1980, serving nearly 140,000 children and youth living in multidimensional poverty across 31 counties in partnership with over 470 churches and over 70,000 alumni of the Compassion Kenya Program.
Accredited KCS Level 1 certification in Child Protection from Keeping Children Safe, Compassion strives to protect children from abuse. It is registered in Kenya with the Public Benefit Organizations Regulatory Authority. Advocacy focuses on child protection, where we ensure each child is protected from abuse and exploitation – every child must be known, loved, and protected.
We believe children in poverty need holistic care to reach their God-given potential. That’s why we seek to know, love, and connect them with a network of caring people — in our communities and around the world — who enable the positive development of children and youth.
The Compassion Approach
Holistic
Compassion participants receive spiritual, physical, cognitive, and socio-emotional care to help them grow into healthy adults. Our development model follows the life cycle of a child, recognizing that all stages and areas of holistic development are crucial for growth.
Contextualized
Frontline churches seek to meet the localized needs of participants, as identified by participant survey data and informed by community stakeholder input.
Age-suitable and long term
Age-appropriate interventions and seamless support equip Compassion and our frontline churches to start early and finish well in caring for children and youth. Our high-impact programming is designed to prepare young people for future success by keeping them learning, engaged, and on track to meet concrete developmental benchmarks.
