CRS

CRS has worked in Kenya since 1965 and is one of the oldest humanitarian relief and development organizations in the country. The Nairobi based country program has over 100 staff in offices in Nairobi, Marsabit, Isiolo, Kisumu and Kilifi.

CRS’ current programming portfolio features projects in social services for children and families, agriculture and lLivelihoods, health, water and sanitation and peacebuilding. In fiscal year 2020, we touched a total of 5,383,224 lives directly and indirectly.

CRS’s approach to delivering outcomes at scale is facilitative, focusing on partnerships, capacity building and a commitment to local leadership. We work through local implementing partners and collaborate closely with Government of Kenya stakeholders. The portfolio of current and recent CRS programs illustrates our commitment to fostering subsidiarity through capacity strengthening.

The country program’s current portfolio is aligned with CRS’ agency-wide Vision 2030 strategy, with goal areas focused on

• Ensuring people live in just and peaceful societies
• Helping people survive and thrive in the face of disasters
• Helping people achieve dignified and resilient livelihoods
• Ensuring children reach their full potential in safe and nurturing families
• Empowering youth to thrive

CRS Kenya is a safe and joyous working environment where respect, equity, diversity and inclusion promotes trust, solidarity and commitment to deliver high quality programs for lasting change to the vulnerable people we serve
