About Us

The Kenya Community Sports Foundation (KESOFO), is a non-governmental sporting organization that uses the medium of sport to effect social change with a special emphasis on youth transformation. It is duly registered and led by sportsmen in Kenya, with the goal of delivering programs of sport for environment, health and social cohesion, specifically targeted at children, the youth and adults living in both urban and rural areas.

KESOFO applies the concept of sport for all initiative which acts to maximize access to and participation in appropriate forms of physical activities. It emphasizes participation and inclusion of all groups in society, regardless of gender, age, ability or race. KESOFO’s programs in total aim at encouraging teamwork and promoting the benefits of cooperation, foster confidence, leadership skills, sportsmanship and responsibility, and raise academic levels in all major meetings.

Our Projects

KESOFO is presently implementing a flagship program titled the Sport for Social Transformation (SST), whose goal is to promote the use of sport as the entry point into local communities to address the underlying causes of poverty and as a vehicle to achieve lasting social change. The SST targets youth and young adult populations (including girls) through local sporting organisations by using sports as an entry point into communities. Involvement in organized sports not only allows boys and girls from all backgrounds to break down social barriers and come together on the playing field, but also creates an enabling environment in which they can feel more comfortable exploring serious and sensitive issues

Youth Reproductive Health Program

The sexual developmental stage of the youth makes them vulnerable especially in the area of reproductive health. Indeed, the HIV/AIDs pandemic remains one of our toughest challenges facing young people between the ages of 14 and 24.
