A partnership with NGAO Foundation

Partnership for Children in Need

The Ngong Road Children’s Foundation and the NGAO Foundation have partnered to enhance their impact on the lives of children and people living in challenging circumstances. Our joint efforts aim to bring together young adults who are on holiday breaks through educational and mentorship programs. These programs are designed to reduce the likelihood of drug abuse, early pregnancy, and immoral behavior.

The NGAO Foundation recently visited our office, and we had an engaging session where we introduced them to the various areas in which we implement positive change. This partnership is more than just a collaboration; it’s a promise to our community. We are dedicated to providing essential services, support, and opportunities. From education to healthcare, our efforts are making a tangible difference in people’s lives.

Ngong Road and Ngao Foundation are joining forces to improve our community. We need your support to make this happen. Together, we can create a better place for everyone.

Empowering Leaders Through Mentorship

At the Ngong Road Children’s Foundation, we understand the power of a helping hand. That’s why we recently organized a dynamic mentorship training program. This program brought together inspiring volunteers from Young Women Leaders Connect and our very own alumni.

Youth Mentorship Programme Kenya

But this wasn’t a typical workshop. We delved deep into the essentials of nurturing future leaders, providing participants with the knowledge to empower young minds. Just imagine – young people navigating college applications, mastering time management, and building strong relationships. Our training covered it all, from effective communication to healthy decision-making.

We didn’t stop there. We also addressed the realities of peer pressure, stress, and self-awareness, equipping mentors with the tools to guide young people through these challenges. Practical life skills such as budgeting, problem-solving, and even sex education were on the agenda, ensuring a well-rounded approach to youth development.

True leadership thrives on a healthy foundation. Research shows that mentored youth are more likely to graduate high school, attend college, and lead healthier lives. We emphasized physical activity, mental well-being, and responsible choices – the cornerstones of a successful life. By equipping mentors with this comprehensive toolkit, the Ngong Road Children’s Foundation is empowering the next generation to excel in every aspect of their lives. Investing in mentorship is investing in a brighter future for our community.

The need for impactful mentors is ever-growing. Consider volunteering your time and expertise! Whether you have a background in education, business, or simply a passion for helping young people reach their full potential, your guidance can make a world of difference.
