Our programs save lives by improving food security and protecting livelihoods; providing life-saving education; increasing access to safe portable water, improving sanitation coverage; promote social justice and open-up economic opportunities that make communities more resilient and less vulnerable to the forces that cause emergencies
IAF places special focus on working alongside poor girls and women because, equipped with the proper resources, they have the power to lift whole families and entire communities out of poverty. A decade of experience shows that when you empower a girl or woman, she becomes a catalyst, creating ripples of positive change that can lift-up everyone around her. That’s why girls and women are at the heart of IAF’s community-based efforts to improve education, health and economic opportunity for everyone. We also work with girls and women to promote social justice, respond to emergencies and confront hunger and climate change. Last year IAF worked in 4 Counties and reached 200,000 people
IAF takes a comprehensive approach to emergency response: first, by working with communities to prepare for and mitigate the impact of disasters; then, by partnering with local groups to provide immediate assistance when an emergency hits; and finally, by working with survivors to help them recover after the crisis has passed. IAF’s emergency response is part of a long-term commitment.
At IAF, we host and participate in events that drive change. Join us in raising awareness, fundraising, and empowering communities across Kenya
IAF brings a longer-term view to its humanitarian work, including supporting people [to] be less vulnerable to disasters in the first place. Where appropriate, our programs link emergency relief, recovery, and long-term development, and include measures for disaster preparedness and risk reduction.
