The Kembé Foundation

The Kembé Foundation Click the 'I like this' button to become fan Our mission is to fight poverty through social entrepreneurship.

"Kembé" is an expression used to encourage people in seemingly desperate situations: "stay strong don't give up!" The Kembé Foundation supports and initiates social enterprises in developing countries. To accomplish this Kembé aims to empower the poor to improve their livelihoods by initiating financially viable businesses in developing countries. By doing so, local communities can become self-su

staining and work their way out of poverty. We believe the best tools to eliminate poverty are the provision of knowledge and the creation of sustainable jobs. A fundamental principle for each project is the alliance with a reliable local partner. In the long-run, the Kembé Foundation and the local partner remain involved with the realised projects to ensure social impact, sustainability and further growth. Kembé ensures that every donation is fully used for the projects at hand. Therefore, the foundation is solely dependent on volunteers. They do not receive any form of compensation to ensure the adherence to the zero overhead policy. To provide transparency to our financial supporters we publish an annual report every year.
