The Nasio Trust is a UK registered charity and Kenyan NGO which supports orphaned and vulnerable children and empowers communities to break the cycle of poverty. Established over 20 years ago, our community-based approach is aimed at providing a holistic solution to tackling the root causes of poverty through education, healthcare, psychosocial support, food security and income generation. Our Philosophy. We believe children should not grow up in institutions like orphanages, where they are isolated from society because of poverty, sickness, disease or death of parents. Children should live in a loving family with dignity without being stigmatised by the cause of their vulnerability.

Story

I'm raising money to fund The Nasio Trust to empower over 200 women in poverty in rural Kenya through entrepreneurship training and seed capital. This will help them set up their own small businesses to earn a sustainable income and support their families.

We've seen first-hand how projects like this improve vulnerable, rural women’s self-confidence by offering them financial independence.

Empowering women is a crucial aspect of achieving gender equality and fostering economic and social development in the community we support.

This will be the hardest thing I have physically done and I hope this challenge will help me to raise awareness and money for the cause. Thank you so much for your support and I look forward to sharing my journey with you! 🚴‍♂️
