Since 2020

Every year, millions of people find ways to transition out of poverty—by adopting new farming technologies, investing in new business opportunities, or finding new jobs. We know women and girls have a unique power to reshape societies. When you invest in a woman’s health and empowerment, it has a ripple effect, helping families, communities, and countries achieve long-lasting benefits

Our grantees, staff, and partners are critical in achieving our vision of a World where every person has the opportunity to live a healthy, productive life.

we know

THAT OUR RESOURCES ALONE ARE NOT ENOUGH, SO WE WORK TO CHANGE PUBLIC POLICIES, ATTITUDES, AND BEHAVIOURS TO IMPROVE LIVES.

EMPOWERMENT OF THE GIRL CHILD

At R.K.O Foundation, we believe that every life has equal value. But today, no matter where you are in the world, life will be harder if you are born a girl. 


Our Gender equality division works to achieve gender equality by integrating gender across the foundations work and investing in women’s economic empowerment, women leadership and removing the artificial barriers for both women and girls to thrive.

wezesha #community outreach

WORKING TOGETHER IN OUR LOCAL COMMUNITIES

We recognize that improving people’s lives often happens at the local level, where individuals take action in their own communities.

In these programs we aim to lift up the most vulnerable people in our communities. 

In 2020 with millions of people struggling to buy food, pay rent and find health care, the foundation has pivoted during the pandemic to commit more resources to the support of local groups who work in the target centres e.g Korogoch

EDUCATION FOR ALL

Robert Kenedy Okongo (R.K.O) has personally and through the foundation contributed to the success of vulnerable children in the society with an intention of aiding the promising youth in their journey towards success.

We believe that education is the key to lifting vulnerable and undeserved communities out of poverty and empowering people to reach their full potential.

We aim at levelling the economic playing field and opening opportunities to everyone. 

We prioritize making quality education accessible and giving leaders in our programs a chance to lift themselves and others.

Our approach is to play a catalytic role – to support the development of innovative solutions in education that are unlikely to be generated by institutions working alone and that can trigger change on a broader scale.

Have Equal Value

We partner with strategic partners who are both in the public and private sectors to foster greater participation in sporting activities as source of income and increasing public awareness on the role of sports in addressing inequity. Because our resources alone are not enough to advance the causes that we care about, we engage in advocacy efforts to promote public policies that advance our work, build strategic alliances with governments and public and private sector organizations and foster greater public awareness about urgent global issues. Our Global Policy & Advocacy Program has teams dedicated to advocacy, policy analysis, media and communications, government relations as well as strengthening of philanthropic partnerships and the charitable sector in Kenya and overseas.
