Children’s Hope & Empowerment Network (CHEN) is a community-led organization serving vulnerable children and families across Kenya’s coast—from Mombasa to Lamu, including island communities like Ndau. Rooted in compassion, dignity, and Islamic values, we uplift orphans, children with disabilities, and low-income households through inclusive education, clean water, and accessible worship spaces.

Our programs include Qur’an and uniform distribution, madrasa upgrades, solar-powered water wells, and mosque accessibility projects. We work closely with local leaders, madrasas, and mosques to deliver lasting, faith-aligned impact.

CHEN is more than an NGO—it’s a movement of mercy, action, and hope. Every donation is tracked, every story is shared, and every child is treated with respect.

Join us in building a future where no child is left behind.

CHEN works hand-in-hand with mosques, madrasas, schools, and families to deliver:

• Madrasa Support: Supplying Qur’ans, Juzuu, prayer mats, desks, and uniforms
• Water Access: Building solar-powered wells in underserved villages
• Child Inclusion: Supporting children with disabilities through accessible infrastructure and outreach
• Mosque Accessibility: Constructing ramps and ablution upgrades for inclusive worship
• Education & Advocacy: Running homework clubs, parenting workshops, and school partnerships
• Community Mobilization: Mapping needs, training volunteers, and building local leadership
