Raising Futures Kenya

Who we are

Working alongside young people to build rewarding futures.

Raising Futures Kenya is the charity working together with young people to create rewarding futures. Without these opportunities, one in five young people in Kenya face living in poverty.

We work together with young people to create rewarding futures, through practical trade and business skills training alongside well-being support. This enables them to overcome poverty and past traumas and build secure futures.

Vision

Our vision is a world where all children and young people in Kenya live with dignity, hope, and the
opportunity to fully participate in society.

Mission

Our mission is to create opportunities with children and young people in Kenya to break the cycle of
poverty and inequality and fulfil their potential.

Our culture and values

We are inclusive – We listen to people and work together with them to develop solutions that really work and last. We do not discriminate on any basis.

We are compassionate – We believe in the potential of all children and young people and recognise their challenges. We feel compelled to provide the support and opportunity that will help them change their lives.

We are collaborative – We work together to make change happen, we’re happy to share with and learn from individuals and organisations to create the biggest impact.

Equality, diversity and inclusion policy

We are committed to a culture of inclusivity. We are able to grow and learn better if we have a diverse organisation formed of the collective sum of individual differences, lived experiences, knowledge and self-expression. We don’t want to exist in an echo chamber. In recruiting for our team we welcome the unique perspectives you can bring in terms of culture, education, opinions, ethnicity, race, sex, gender identity, values, age, religion, disability, sexual orientation, beliefs, nation of origin and languages spoken.
