Ngong Road Children's Foundation

We empower Nairobi children living in poverty to transform their lives through education and support, leading to employment.

Wenceslaus Njiri

Wence joined the program in late 2009. He was raised in Dagoretti, Ng’ando Slum where he lived with his grandmother, younger sister, and three other relatives.

He has always been active in all of the organization’s programs. While at college, he frequently volunteered to attend Saturday programs to play with the kids and offer mentorship to them. In 2018 when the SRH program was launched he quickly joined as a Youth Peer Provider (YPP) and has been facilitating SRH talks with all our students.

In 2017, he was driven to pursue a career in social work and community development at Kabete National Polytechnic by his passion for helping people in his community. Before graduating, he sought an internship in our organization. His determination and desire to help others were felt and hence got employed immediately after the internship. He currently serves as a Case Manager in the primary department and coordinates the Saturday program.

Norah Keya

Norah Keya is having a remarkable journey with the organization NRCF. Raised in Nakuru County, she developed a strong passion for community development, which led her to pursue that field. Norah joined NRCF in 2011 as an intern and gradually worked her way up to become a caseworker in the secondary department.

Throughout her tenure at NRCF, She has held various roles, including volunteer case managing and librarian. However, her recent position as a case manager in the primary department has allowed her to truly make a difference in the lives of students and their families. She values the opportunity to establish meaningful relationships with them, particularly during challenging times.

Norah’s work involves closely engaging with individuals and families, understanding their needs, and assisting them in finding viable solutions. She finds immense satisfaction in witnessing the positive transformations in the lives of those she helps. Norah considers her association with NRCF a genuine blessing due to the numerous lives she has witnessed changing for the better.

Her experiences and interactions have undoubtedly shaped her perspective on the importance of community development. Through her work at NRCF, she strives to bring about positive change and contribute to the well-being of the people she serves.
