Message from the Chief Executive Officer

NGOs are now to be found in every conceivable sector of the economy and every corner of this country targeting the poor of the poorest. The Government in its current Economic Recovery Strategy for Employment and Wealth Creation appreciated the critical role played by the NGOs as an important ingredient to the achievement of the set target of a sustained economic growth rate of between 6% and 7% per annum.

It is important to note that our strategic plan is linked to other national initiatives and very consistent with the Kenya National Development plan Vision 2030. HANDS will tirelessly be in the forefront in the promotion of a sustainable, responsible and accountable community through their involvement and participation in all development agenda.

I finally urge all the relevant stakeholders; donors, government, community and other development practioners to seek opportunities of partnership with HANDS for the benefit of the community.
