Corporate Partnerships
Invest in change that aligns with your focus areas:
Our work is multi-sectoral, covering education and training, mental health and wellbeing, empowerment of women and girls and young mothers, climate action, enterprise and employment, among others!
Our market-led courses include: Hairdressing & Beauty Therapy, Fashion & Fabric Design, Catering & Hospitality, Carpentry & Joinery, Electrical Wiring & Installation, Motor Vehicle Mechanics, and short courses in Entrepreneurship, Financial Literacy and Digital Skills.
We are impact-led in driving skills, employment, and systemic change – but we are people-centred in our work, and in our partnerships, offering a personal, collaborative approach grounded in trust and shared purpose. (See our Vision, Mission and Values)
Strengthen your ESG and inspire your staff:
Partner with us and demonstrate your commitment to actively creating a fairer world – contributing to access to opportunities for vulnerable children and young people in Kenya, particularly young women and girls, to build rewarding futures.
We’re keen to work with you, inspire your staff, and personalise engagement for your business, including providing joyful updates and resources to raise awareness, options for payroll giving, places on fundraising events, and much more. (See our Events page)
As a small charity it really means a lot to us that you’ve found us and might want to connect or get involved!

Partnership Spotlight: Millennium Consulting
“After nearly 20 years supporting Raising Futures Kenya, Jane and I had the privilege of visiting the charity’s Seed of Hope training centre in Nairobi. It was inspiring to meet the team, see the amazing work, and spend time with Seed of Hope’s bright and ambitious students. Their energy and optimism are truly remarkable and a testament to the impact Raising Futures Kenya continues to have on so many young lives.”

Partnerships with other Charities and NGOs and Movements
As an organisation we are all about listening, learning and sharing our learning with others – after all, why should small charities, with limited resources, keep reinventing the wheel? We’re open to 1:1 and group conversations, and linking to our Kenyan-led partner for site visits.
However, if you are a Kenyan-based NGO or community group, you may wish to reach out directly to our Kenyan-led partner rather than our UK-registered charity, at kenyaoffice@raisingfutureskenya.org.uk
