Kitchen Gardens in Kajiado

Kenya Good Neighbors remain committed to its mission “We exist to make the world a place without hunger”. We encourage our communities to adopt sustainable and productive farming methods that strengthen their capacity to withstand climate change and natural disasters.

One Man Who Planted Trees Project in Ngatataek-Kajiado County
Kajiado County is predominantly a semi-arid area, with livestock rearing as the main economic activity. Water shortage has been a challenge for a long time where the County receives low rainfall, meaning there is a prolonged dry season. Most rivers, dams, and springs are seasonal therefore when there is a prolonged dry season it has a direct impact on the local community. The County has previously suffered from severe droughts, which led to cattle losses and food shortages. With current climate change affecting the Country, weather conditions have been elastic for a long time and it is hard to predict the rainfall patterns or the dry seasons.
 
Emergency Response

On 6th November 2024, Kenya Good Neighbors led by Country Director, Good Neighbors Taiwan, Hon. Adhe Wario Guyo North Horr Constituency area MP in the company of DCC Marsabit North, Sub-County Administrator,  among other officials from Marsabit County Government flagged off 96 tonnes of maize flour and beans and cooking oil that targeted 4,000 households that are suffering from severe hunger in North Horr Constituency as a result of the prolonged drought and flood that killed all of the livestock that had been the community’s main source of income.

Emergency response

On 31st October 2024, a fire broke out in Bluebar in the Korogocho slums due to an electrical malfunction. Fortunately, no fatalities were reported. However, because none of their possessions could be saved, 15 households were rendered homeless due to the fire. In response to this catastrophe, Kenya Good Neighbors swiftly supported the affected families by donating mattresses and blankets to ensure they had the necessary bedding.
