Supporting Vulnerable Communities — From the Elders Who Built Them to the Children Who Will Carry Them Forward
Two Communities. One Promise.

Hope for Kenya’s Most Vulnerable Lives

The Ken Ogelo Foundation was founded on the belief that no one in society should be forgotten because of age, poverty, illness, or circumstance. Every person deserves dignity, care, protection, and the opportunity to live with hope.

Established in honor of the late Kerina Ogelo, the Foundation serves vulnerable groups within rural communities across Kenya through compassionate, community-driven programs that support children, the elderly, and disadvantaged families facing hardship, neglect, illness, and unsafe living conditions.

We respond where help has been delayed or absent, focusing on the real people behind every need — the grandparent struggling to care for orphaned grandchildren, the vulnerable family without basic support, and the child forced to learn in unsafe conditions.

At the heart of our work is a commitment to restore dignity, protect lives, and build stronger, more caring communities for those who need it most.

Building a Future Where Elders Are Valued

Why Our Elders Are at Risk

Limited Medical Access

Many elderly people cannot reach hospitals or afford consistent treatment, leaving chronic illnesses and HIV care unmanaged.

Food Insecurity

Hunger is a daily reality. Without regular meals and proper nutrition, medication becomes ineffective and health declines rapidly.

Abuse & Neglect

Elders face violence, land grabbing, and abandonment, often suffering in silence without legal or social protection.

Give Dignity. Give Care. Give Hope.

Every day, elderly men and women in Homa Bay face hunger, illness, abuse, and isolation. Your support can provide food, medical care, protection, and dignity to those who once built our communities. Together, we can ensure no senior is forgotten and no life is left behind.
