Phiona Kimono

Phiona Kimono

Health Coordinator

Phiona helps organise health awareness, referrals and follow-up for children and caregivers. Her role is to make health support practical and responsible—connecting families to appropriate care rather than presenting the foundation as a substitute for qualified medical services.

Emily Kakayi

Emily Kakayi

Outreach Manager

Emily coordinates volunteers, community engagement and outreach logistics. She helps create the human connection between the foundation, local supporters and the families we serve, while keeping activities organised and responsive to community realities.

Our volunteer network

Volunteers support outreach, logistics, communications and selected child-focused activities under the direction of the foundation team. Roles involving children require clear boundaries and safeguarding expectations.

Governance

Oversight is not the same as day-to-day management

The foundation's governance approach separates operational leadership from oversight responsibilities. Governing-body responsibilities include reviewing plans and budgets, financial oversight, safeguarding and risk, compliance, and holding leadership accountable for charitable resources.

Core oversight responsibilities

  • Strategy and annual planning
  • Financial review and controls
  • Safeguarding and risk oversight
  • Leadership accountability
  • Compliance and donor reporting
