Our programmes are structured around three strategic pillars: Joyful Women Organisation, Voice of Children and Tuombeni Kenya.
Joyful Women Organization
The Women Economic Empowerment pillar empowers women economically through access to affordable credit, knowledge, skills development, market access and linkages. Kenya’s economic growth potential can be enhanced by enabling women to contribute more fully and effectively to the country’s economy. Our goal under this pillar is to build a movement of dignified women who are economically and socially transformed. This is done through our Flagship Program Joyful Women Organization. Our work under the Joyful Women Organisation entails:
.
Financial Inclusion and Financial Health
.
Economic Development and Livelihood
.
Our interventions empower women, youth, and local communities to create sustainable income-generating opportunities. These interventions offer vocational training, access to financial services, and support for small businesses, enabling individuals to build skills, secure employment, and become economically self-sufficient. By fostering entrepreneurship and sustainable livehoods support especially among women and youth, and promoting access to markets, MaMa Doing Good help break the cycle of poverty and encourage long-term financial independence. These interventions strengthen local economies, improve quality of life, and build resilient communities with greater control over their economic futures.
Micro Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) & Credit
.
Through this intervention, we support the table banking groups by providing top-up loans to increase the liquidity of their revolving fund. This will increase women’s access to credit, leading to the growth of their MSMEs and thus an opportunity for job creation and increased income. Training women in credit/debt management is a key aspect to ensure that borrowed funds are well utilised to minimise the risk of default.
Water Access and Sanitation
.
Our impactful water and sanitation interventions, such as the installation of water tanks, boreholes and rainwater harvesting systems, are designed to provide marginalized communities with reliable access to clean water. These initiatives address the critical water scarcity faced by underserved populations, reducing the time and effort spent on water collection and improving overall health outcomes. Boreholes are strategically drilled to tap into underground water sources, while water tanks and rainwater harvesting systems capture and store water for use during dry periods. By implementing these sustainable solutions, we not only ensure a steady water supply but also empower communities to take charge of their own water security, ultimately improving livelihoods and reducing the risks of waterborne diseases.
Food Security
.
Our food security initiatives focus on ensuring access to nutritious, affordable food while enhancing resilience to food insecurity. This is achieved through agricultural training, community gardens, nutrition education, climate-resilient agriculture, food distribution, and emergency aid. We promote sustainable farming practices and women’s involvement in food production. These efforts empower communities to manage their food sources and strengthen their ability to cope with economic or environmental challenges through improved food storage, distribution, and local markets. The interventions address both immediate hunger and long-term sustainability, fostering economic independence and creating jobs in agriculture sector.
Capacity Building
.
Our Capacity building interventions support women, youth, and local communities by strengthening the skills, knowledge, and resources of individuals and organizations to enhance their effectiveness. These interventions include training and skills development programs, leadership development, community empowerment initiatives, Institutional Strengthening, access to technology, and financial literacy. By empowering women and youth through education, mentorship, and advocacy, MaMa Doing Good help to foster self-reliance and leadership within these communities. Additionally, creating networks and partnerships between local groups enhances their ability to address challenges, drive sustainable development, and advocate for their rights and leave harmoniously.
Tuombeni Kenya
Faith remains a cornerstone of Kenya’s identity. Strong families grounded in shared values are the foundation of peaceful and resilient communities. Tuombeni Kenya mobilises faith networks and community leaders to reinforce moral responsibility, ethical leadership and family cohesion.
.
Peace building and conflict Resolution
MaMa Doing Good plays a key role in peacebuilding and conflict resolution by addressing the root causes of conflict and fostering sustainable peace. Through community engagement, dialogue, and policy advocacy, we create inclusive platforms for collaboration and trust-building. Our interventions prevent violence, empower communities, and promote resilience and stability. By focusing on conflict prevention, resolution, and structural change, we help to create environments conducive to reconciliation, justice, and socio-economic development. This leads to stronger, more cohesive communities and transforms cycles of violence into opportunities for growth and healing
Disaster Response & Community Resilience
In moments of crisis — whether caused by floods, drought, fire, conflict or other emergencies — families are often the most vulnerable. Tuombeni Kenya responds by mobilising faith communities, volunteers and partners to provide compassionate, coordinated and dignified support to affected households. Disaster response under Tuombeni Kenya is guided by one principle: faith must move beyond words into action.
Voice Of Children
Children are not merely beneficiaries of development — they are rights-holders whose safety, wellbeing and voices must be safeguarded. The Voice of Children Initiative advances child advocacy through three foundational pillars: Protection, Provision and Participation.
.
Child Protection
Every child deserves to grow in a secure environment — free from abuse, neglect, exploitation and violence. Under the Protection pillar, the Voice of Children Initiative works to strengthen safeguarding systems and promote a culture of care at home, in schools, and in communities.
Child Provision
Children flourish when their basic needs are met consistently and equitably. Provision is not charity — it is a right. The Provision pillar focuses on strengthening access to essential services that enable children to develop fully — physically, emotionally, socially and intellectually.
Child Participation
Children are capable of insight, creativity and leadership. Their perspectives enrich decision-making at family, school and national levels. The Participation pillar ensures children are not only protected and provided for — but also meaningfully engaged.
