Arc- Kenya was established in the year 2005 and is an organization operating in Siaya County in Western Kenya region. The Organization assists the neighboring community with a number of activities that are geared towards improving their living standards and solving problems that they face through integrated development initiatives. As an idealistic, independent humanitarian organization, we work in close cooperation with partners involved in poverty eradication, local development and reconciliation processes across all borders of life. We also enhance and strengthen value based understanding, learning and cooperation.

Arc -Kenya believes that all human beings share the same intrinsic values and that we all have great possibilities in terms of developing our resources, societies and ourselves. In order to fulfill our potential for creativity and action we need to cooperate, enhance and strengthen understanding, awareness and learning amongst the people in the communities we serve. Arc-Kenya focuses on empowerment, social and economic independence for all the people in our locality. Over the years, we have strived to promote sharing experiences from our national, political and socio-cultural contexts, in order to create institutional collaboration and learning processes between our partners, within our organizations, and in our network.

Despite our projects posting impressive results in improving the local communities’ welfare and impacting positively on their lives, there is still a lot of room for intervention and transformation. We see a lot of potential in our child protection, vocational training, childcare, agriculture and Environmental conservation efforts we carry out.
