CFK Africa to Recognize Community Champions Leading Change in Kenya’s Slums


Recognizing the Heart of Change: CFK Africa's Community Awards Event

 

"On August 9th in Kibera, CFK Africa will proudly host its annual community awards, an event dedicated to recognizing the extraordinary efforts of individuals and groups who are leading change in Kenya's informal settlements.

This celebration underscores our belief in community-led development, highlighting those who embody the values of impact, innovation, leadership, and resilience. These are the unsung heroes who, despite limited resources, are profoundly improving lives from within their communities.

A truly special moment this year will be honoring the Kibera Soccer Women FC for their remarkable triumph in the FKF Women’s Cup Finals. Their historic win not only showcases the incredible talent within Kibera but also highlights their role as mentors in our girls' empowerment programs.

Join us in celebrating hope, talent, and innovation where it's needed most. Learn more about our mission at www.cfkafrica.org."

 


 

WHO IS CFK AFRICA?

CFK Africa was Founded in 2001, and works to improve public health and economic prosperity in informal settlements in Kenya through integrated health and youth leadership initiatives. Using a participatory development approach, the organization works directly with community residents to develop and implement sustainable programs. After marking 20 years of service in Kibera in 2021, CFK began expanding to 25 informal settlements across eight counties in Kenya, including Kajiado, Kiambu, Kilifi, Kisumu, Machakos, Mombasa, Nairobi, and Nakuru. For more information, visit www.cfkafrica.org.

The celebration, one of the only of its kind in Kenya’s slum communities, will recognize local leaders driving community change and honor the Kibera Soccer Women FC for their historic victory in Kenya’s recent FKF Women’s Cup Finals.

A lively awards celebration is scheduled to take place in Kibera, Kenya’s largest informal settlement outside Nairobi. “Despite operating with limited resources, members of our community demonstrate leadership, resilience, and lifelong dedication to improving the lives of others,” said CFK Africa Executive Director Jeffrey Okoro.

“We are excited to honor the unsung heroes at our annual awards event.”

The annual awards recognize individuals or groups that promote CFK Africa’s core values of impact, innovation, leadership, sustainability, inclusivity, resilience, and community coaching as it empowers youth in slums through innovative health, youth leadership, sports for development, and girls empowerment programs. The awards highlight the organization’s model of communityled development, with nominations and selection driven entirely by local residents. In a landmark moment for the community, this year’s celebration will also recognize the Kibera Soccer Women FC, CFK Africa’s professional women’s soccer team, who recently clinched the national title in the FKF Women’s Cup Finals. Their victory marks a historic achievement for youth from Kibera, demonstrating the talent of youth in slums. Members of the team also serve as community mentors for CFK Africa’s girls empowerment program. “CFK Africa has always believed that community-led development is essential for the long term,” added Okoro. “In a changing world, we must continue to foster solutions that come from within, allowing hope, talent, and innovation to flourish where it’s needed most.”
