Transforming Communities
Community
“Mana is simply how you care for other people.”
We are born to help one another. We are born to connect with community. When we serve one another, we experience a deep contentment.
Manasprings facilitates ‘in-field’ learning that takes place within community schools, health centres, children’s homes, community groups, agricultural settings and more. We become stronger leaders by seeing first-hand what other like-minded leaders are actually doing. We learn from each other. Our organisations grow stronger.
We champion Mana Women and their local organisations! And in doing so, help raise funds for community programs to support our mission to transform communities for the wellbeing of all. Manasprings Girls Education, Agriculture for Women, and Women in Small Business Programs are a collective effort to educate and empower girls and women within Kenya society.
