Growing up in Kibera, Esther realized she had a calling for childcare at a young age. Now, she has more than 20 years of experience as an ECD teacher supporting children’s physical and cognitive development.
When Edith realized her daughter was underweight, she reached out to our nutrition program for help. Less than a year later, her daughter was successfully discharged and is now able to enjoy a happy, healthy childhood.
With experience traveling and living in informal settlements in Africa, India, and China, our newest Advisory Council member, Steve Arnold, reflects on the importance of social context and listening in effective development work.
We were fortunate to have Madeleine Albright as a member of our Global Advisory Council. Co-founder and board chair, Rye Barcott, reflects on his friendship with Secretary Albright and shares three lessons we can learn from her life of service.
Everyone deserves access to clean water, and regularly monitoring water quality is part of achieving that goal. We’re working with schools to make sure students and teachers stay safe and healthy.
A lot has changed since 2001. As we begin expanding to informal settlements beyond Kibera, we are thrilled to announce that we have changed our name from Carolina for Kibera to CFK Africa!
