GCI is committed to transparency and accountability. Donations are used to directly fund our programs in areas such as clean water, healthcare, education, and livelihood support. A portion is also allocated to training community volunteers, ensuring that our impact is sustainable and community-driven.
GCI focuses on a variety of areas to address the unique needs of Kenyan communities, including humanitarian aid, education, health, gender equality, food security, peace-building, and sustainable livelihoods. Our programs aim to create lasting change and resilience among vulnerable populations.
There are many ways to support GCI! You can make a donation, volunteer with our programs, participate in fundraising events, or share our mission with others. Visit our “Get Involved” page to learn more about specific opportunities to make a difference.
While GCI is legally mandated to operate across Kenya, our primary areas of activity are currently in Kajiado, Marsabit, Samburu, Turkana, and Isiolo counties. We work closely with local communities in these regions to provide tailored support.
