Exciting new partnership with Unity Homes

We’re thrilled to announce a new partnership with residential property developer Unity Homes.

Unity Homes is one of the fastest growing developers in East Africa with 687 homes completed to date and 2000 future homes in their plans. We are delighted they have chosen to make a corporate donation to Kids League Kenya.

In addition to their financial support, Kids League Kenya and Unity Homes will also be collaborating on a number of exciting future projects. We have a range of objectives including raising awareness of our fundraising work and the profile of our alumni.

A new partnership

Unity Homes are a Kenyan company, founded in 2014 and head quartered in Nairobi, so supporting a charity in Mombasa may not be immediately obvious connection. However, directors of Unity Homes are from Mombasa, and have known of the work of Kids League Kenya for a number of years:

“Kids League Kenya are a charity that have been educating children for many years, making a real difference to the lives of the people of Mombasa.

We’re delighted to be in a position to offer our support to the charity and look forward to working together.” Jason, Executive Director, Unity Homes.

#UnityisCommunity

One of the key differentiators of Kids League Kenya from many other charities is the local knowledge and how embedded we are in our community in Kongowea.

Our belief is that enduring change is possible when communities are able to take charge and find their own solutions for development. This is why our team work closely with the local schools and officials in our mission to enable bright students to access education, pursue a career of their choosing and give back to the community.

The mission statement of Unity Homes is: “To mass produce investment grade affordable housing with a focus on community to enhance lives and secure futures.” The alignment of having community at the heart of our work in both organisations means that there’s much we can achieve together.

A glance at their social media and you can see that ‘Unity is community’ is more than a slogan for the team at Unity Homes. As a residential developer the team at Unity Homes take seriously their responsibility to not just build the buildings for people to live in, they also encourage a sense of community in their developments.

Education changes lives

The commitment of Unity Homes to community ranges from the introduction of physical assets such as communal playground and swimming pool, to organised Easter egg hunts and Halloween fun days.

As well as activities for children, the team also prioritise education as an important part of developing a community.  Adult education opportunities include important skills such as computer classes to life saving first-aid skills.  

Looking to the future

We’re very grateful for the financial support offered by Unity Homes and excited to see what the future holds. If you would like to have a discussion about how we could partner with your organisation, please get in touch.
