Choose your focus

Six campaigns, each with a clear purpose.

Choose your audience first and compare the options. Donors can give through three purpose-specific campaigns. People and organisations in Kenya can explore the three participation campaigns, including how to prepare, every journey stage and current application availability.

01 Donor campaign

Strengthen Foundation Capability

Strong systems make lasting social change possible.

Help Goblis build the governance, partnerships, trustworthy information and operational resilience that support both Jikimu and Mashinani.

Why support matters

Promising community and enterprise initiatives often struggle when the organisations connecting them lack the time, systems and expertise to follow through. Reliable governance and relationships are part of the impact infrastructure.

02 Donor campaign

Support Jikimu

A good idea deserves more than a single introduction.

Back a clearer journey for social entrepreneurs: entry, readiness, suitable specialist referrals, useful connections and evidence-based follow-up.

Why support matters

An early-stage social entrepreneur may have the determination to solve a problem but no clear path through learning, advice, market connections and responsible specialist support. Disconnected offers can waste time and leave progress unmeasured.

03 Donor campaign

Support Mashinani

Rural development begins with listening to a place.

Help communities frame priority needs, validate opportunities, connect responsible institutions and build durable evidence of local change.

Why support matters

Rural communities rarely face a single isolated challenge. Livelihoods, infrastructure, environment, services and markets often connect, yet fragmented projects can overlook local voices and existing institutions.

04 Kenya participation

Volunteer in Kenya

Put your skills to work alongside people and communities.

Explore supervised roles supporting social entrepreneurs, rural communities and accountable Foundation operations in Kenya.

Why participate

Effective local work needs relevant skills, realistic availability and preparation to serve safely.

05 Kenya participation

Join Jikimu in Kenya

Build a social-purpose enterprise with a clearer path forward.

For potential beneficiaries in Kenya seeking social entrepreneurship support, mentoring, expertise and relevant networks through Jikimu.

Why participate

An idea, an early enterprise and a growing venture need different support. Jikimu starts with your stage, social purpose and practical barriers.

06 Kenya participation

Mashinani for Community Organisations

Bring your community’s priorities into a shared local plan.

A Kenya-only entry route for community organisations and authorised representatives exploring locally led rural development support.

Why participate

Lasting rural development starts with community priorities, local knowledge, accountable representation and a plan for sustaining the work.

What a meaningful contribution needs

Clear purpose. Responsible delivery. Evidence you can understand.

We invite you to stand behind work that makes sense. A campaign is an invitation to learn and collaborate, not a promise that a particular result is guaranteed or that every proposal has already been financed.

Choose the change

Read a specific campaign and understand the people, places or institutional capability it concerns.

Agree a responsible route

Discuss fit, intended use, required due diligence and any restrictions before sending funds.

Follow the evidence

Bank transfers are reconciled by Finance before acknowledgement, and reporting follows what is actually supported by records.

Not sure where to begin?

Tell us the difference you want to make.

Whether you are an individual supporter, diaspora professional, business, foundation or grantmaker, we welcome a conversation about where your interests fit. You can ask questions without making a commitment.

Donors can create a GFD reference for matching authorised bank instructions. Participation does not require a donation, and giving never improves selection. Online applications show their current availability on each participation page.
