What does "Tumaini" mean?
“Tumaini” is the Swahili word for hope — and hope is at the heart of everything we do. We believe every person deserves a second chance, regardless of their past.
Where is Tumaini Action CBO located?
We’re based in Kendu Bay Town Ward, Rachuonyo North Sub-County, Homa Bay County, Kenya. Our work primarily serves communities throughout Homa Bay County.
Is Tumaini Action CBO a registered organization?
Yes. We’re a fully registered Community-Based Organization under Kenya’s Ministry of Labour and Social Protection, State Department of Social Protection (Registration No. DSD/43/247/02/144137). We were founded in 2021 and officially registered on September 30, 2025.
Where does my donation go?
Every donation directly supports our programs — counseling sessions, dignity kits for survivors, school outreach, youth training, and community health initiatives. As a registered CBO, we operate with full transparency and accountability.
