Jenga International Services Inc. partners with communities to build sustainable futures from the ground up.

We work hand in hand with families, youth, and local leaders in Kenya—especially in Kakamega County—to develop solutions that strengthen mental health, expand economic opportunity, and empower the next generation.

Our approach is holistic and community-based. Through mentorship, counseling, entrepreneurship support, education, and wellness programs, we help individuals move from survival to stability—and ultimately to success.

True to our name—“Jenga,” the Swahili word for “to build”—we are committed to long-term change. We don’t impose solutions; we build them together.

By investing in people, we create ripple effects that transform entire communities—making them stronger, more resilient, and ready to thrive for generations to come.

JENGA in Brief

Contributing to Sustainable Kenyan Communities, Families, and Youth, with Respect to and in Protection of Kenya's 'Dignity Policy.'

JENGA predicts the future by creating it

"We visited Michael Mathenge. He was glad to see us and to hear that we walked all the way from our place to reach him at that far end of the Mutomo village. He allowed us to walk in his farm, which is big in size. On his farm he thanked Apostle Jackie Dozier for the support of 4 packets of maize seeds. He planted them, and indeed they are WOW! WOW! WOW!. However, he said that the only challenge was how to get fertilizer and that he didn't plant on time. But then he thanked the Lord. Look at the video and the photo." Carolyn, Jenga Volunteer
