CFK Africa has announced key leadership appointments to advance its mission and strategy. Jeffrey Okoro has been named the organisation’s first chief executive officer, and Beth-Ann Kutchma has been named executive director. Additionally, CFK Africa has also appointed Nelia Verano as director of philanthropy.

These strategic roles come at a pivotal moment for CFK Africa as the organization enters its 25th year of service delivery in Kenya and launches a groundbreaking youth development and public health network across Africa, reflecting its commitment to sustainable development, youth leadership, and locally driven solutions.
