KCDF is Kenyan public foundation that supports community development initiatives across Kenya, through grant-making, capacity development, endowment building as well as resource mobilization.

Our areas of support cut across diverse development issues that affect vulnerable and marginalized communities, such as Food Security, Education, Youth, Children, The Girl Child, Community Asset Building, Policy and Advocacy among others, all in an effort to enable needy and marginalized communities to access their rights and realize livelihood opportunities. 

We place great emphasis on sustainability; not only of the interventions we support, but also in the values, principles and approaches to our business. 

KCDF is a perpetual Kenyan foundation and hence believes strongly in self reliance as a critical aspect of its work; hence achievement of impact and both local and international resource mobilization form a core part of our work.
