We exist to make the world a place without hunger, where people live together in harmony.
Good Neighbors Kenya works alongside the country’s most vulnerable families, county by county, so that help today turns into independence later.
Our Impact
We’re Building Safer, Healthier, Stronger Futures.
Who we are
Good Neighbors works in over 50 countries.
Good Neighbors is an international humanitarian organisation founded on the belief that every child has the right to live with dignity. In Kenya, we work hand-in-hand with communities, county governments, and partners to make that right real.
We are rights-based and child-focused, guided by the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child and accountable under Kenya’s PBO Act.
