Save the Children East & Southern Africa Region (Kenya)

Save the Children is the leading independent, child-focused organization in the world.  We work for lasting improvements in children’s lives in more than 120 countries through 30 member organisations.  We achieve change for children by building evidence from innovations, partnering with key stakeholders, and being the voice for change to implement our programs at scale to impact millions of children.  Last year our programs benefited more than 70 million children globally.  

In Kenya, Save the Children has been operational since the 1950s, providing support to children through developmental and humanitarian relief programmes delivered both directly and through local partners. We currently employ around 250 staff working from one of five field offices and our Nairobi Country Office. In 2015, we reached more than 650,000 Kenyans directly through our programmes. Save the Children now has an operational presence in Bungoma, Dadaab Refugee Camp, Garissa, Mandera, Turkana and Wajir and we work through partners in many other parts of the country.
