OUR JOURNEY

In 2005, a Swedish entrepreneur Oskar Stålnacke traveled to Africa, where he encountered a Kenya in crisis. There was famine, aid resources were dwindling, and the people had virtually no means to change their situation. 

In the middle of the catastrophe, a drive was born to work for the opposite: to empower local communities by growing resources, increasing opportunities for influence, and fostering activity among those who needed it most.
