Welcome to Kenya Community Development Foundation
 

Kenya Community Development Foundation is Kenya's only community foundation. A community foundation has a mandate of building capacities of community organisations and projects aimed at improving people's welfare. It also works with communities to mobilise resources and set up permanent assets in form of endowments. KCDF was established in 1997 as a project of the Aga Khan Foundation. In 2001 it was registered as a company limited by guarantee and not having share value. More

 
 
 
     
 

Programme Development and Grant making:

The programme development and grant making portfolio comprises partnerships with grantees in several thematic areas namely education, early childhood development, youth development, community transformation for asset development, HIV/AIDS and organizational capacity building.

KCDF works towards its vision of “All Kenyans giving and working together with permanent resources for equitable development” through grant making and support for local organisations to set up permanent resources for their sustainable development. Thus, all grants must in some way contribute to sustainable community development. To ensure effectiveness and maximum possible benefit to the targeted communities, the grant making process is supported by careful selection of partners, assessment of needs, ongoing monitoring, supervision and support.
