Mission Statement
Meet Kenyans is the place where Kenyans have a voice to speak for themselves instead of hearing about their stories through a non-Kenyan. Meet Kenyans is where you will read and see Kenyans themselves sharing their thoughts, experiences, ideas, aspirations and much more. You will read stories about Kenyans who are at home doing what they do on a daily basis. Kenyans running their businesses, looking for a sponsor to help with their education or business loans, Kenyans living abroad, Kenyans who want to connect with other Kenyans. This Web site is dedicated to Kenyans worldwide!
Most Web sites about Kenya deal with travel information, and they lack information on what Kenya is all about and what makes Kenya such a wonderful place, the Kenyan people.
“Kenya is not just about Lions, Giraffes and fast running men,
it's also about Studios and Hip-Hop!”

There are rich and poor Kenyans and most Kenyans or Africans for that matter don't have AIDS. Unlike the European and American media would like you to believe. There are almost just as many people in the United States with AIDS then in Africa, but people in the West refuse to talk about it anymore. Their media attention has been turned to look at Africa who suffers from the AIDS epidemic and not themselves. Fact: more people die in Africa from Malaria than from AIDS! Fact: more people die in Africa from poverty than from Malaria!
Kenya has a very open society full of educated, and very polite citizens with a wonderful culture. Kenya is also home to 42 native tribes some well known like the Maasai do to films, such as The Ghost and the Darkness - with (Val Kilmer) and (Michael Douglas). Kenya is full of opportunities to also help people who are in real need, with food, clothing, education, water projects and much more. Meet Kenyans is not in any way a non-profit organisation, but we do get involved where we can. We help to spread the word of existing non-profits, and or to help individuals find sponsors directly when possible. We recommend if you have the means to go to Kenya yourself, please do so. Meet the individual or family you would like to sponsor, or sponsor an on going project that benefits that local community.
Meet Kenyans is also a great place where people can learn more about Kenyans, instead of just visiting Kenya for a fun filled Safari vacation. Safaris are good because that helps to keep certain employment opportunities ongoing, but there is so much more to Kenya then safari's. God has blessed Kenya!
