About CHEK?
The Center for Hope and Empowerment (CHEK) is an organization registered under the national NGO in Kenya as full fledged not-for-profit entity. We exist to help create an equitable and just world for Everyone without favoritism. We are committed to working with “the least of these” – marginalized populations – to offer hope and help them be empowered to improve their quality of life. We use proven, practical and experiential training curriculums specially formulated to educate, affirm, and motivate, offering practical tools to help those at the margins of society to navigate through their circumstances with confidence to achieve a more secure, successful, and fulfilling life.
Our approach?
Every human person is endowed by their creator with inherent worth. This ‘worthiness’ is a constant and is not dependent on our actions. This basic understanding of human dignity is central to our approach and informs our training curriculum’s and all our interactions. Each individual has equal value regardless of their circumstance, social standing, or past actions.
Can I partner with CHEK and how?
Yes, CHEK is open to partnership, we believe “little is more when God is in it” and you can partner with us to make this dream come true.
