Welcome to KIR FOUNDATION
KIR Foundation is a cause-driven organization that is for Child Care, Youth Empowerment and Personal Social Responsibility. This is because a strong society can only be achieved when the individuals especially young people become the change they want to see.
We focus our work in three key areas; literacy, leadership and Personal Social Responsibility, because they are fundamental to strengthening learning, growth and change in young people.

CHILD CARE
We create awareness in the society about orphans, vulnerable children and children from families with limited resources. We also advocate their rights through our enlightenment, educational and service programs. Further more, we target their emotional, cognitive and educational needs through our activities. |

YOUTH EMPOWERMENT
We believe that our young
people are indeed leaders in their own right and the custodians of
tomorrow. However we realize there is a gap in the current educational
and developmental structures to give them the necessary nascent
leadership attitude. Therefore we inspire, educate and empower them
through various learning activities like: lectures, book clubs and
participation in community service. |

MENTORING & COUNSELING
We realize that
young people are looking for role models to emulate and someone
trustworthy they can share with. We therefore offer counseling sessions
on issues pertaining to but not limited to abuse. We also mentor former
street children and orphans, generally referred to as orphans and
vulnerable children (OVCS). |

ADVOCACY
We are a powerful ally and advocate for our young people and their rights. We have partnered with various organizations that work with young people especially those from disadvantaged backgrounds. The objective is to create awareness and influence public policy around a range of social issues concerning children including the Child Rights Act 2003, child welfare, education, literacy and public health . |
