Strengthening Partnerships for Sustainable Development: KCDF and Ford Foundation’s Journey
October 28, 2024
On Monday, October 14th 2024, KCDF had the pleasure of hosting a delegation from the Mott Foundation to discuss our ongoing collaboration, focusing on documenting impactful stories in community philanthropy.
We were honored to have Rebecca Chamberlain (Communications Officer) and Lorenzo Wakefield (Programs Officer) from the Mott
Foundation in attendance.
Our Executive Director, Grace Maingi, led the KCDF team, accompanied by Caesar Ngule (Programmes Director), Bonnie Tinda (Communications Manager), Kennedy Odera (Coordinator – Capacity Building & System Strengthening), and Hellen Kuria (Coordinator – Community Voice & Philanthropy).
The team also visited the Kilimani Project Foundation, one of our partners implementing the Strengthening the Community Foundation Movement as a Basis for Sustainable Development in Kenya project, supported by the Mott Foundation.
During the visit, we received valuable updates on the Kilimani community’s progress in driving philanthropy and local development.
KCDF and the Mott Foundation are proud to partner in empowering Kenyan community organizations to establish themselves as community foundations, enhancing their capacity to create lasting, meaningful impact.
