Every action we take is guided by a deep sense of moral purpose and responsibility to those we serve.
02 Community-Centered Approach
We believe that sustainable change must be rooted in and driven by the community itself. All our programs are designed with direct input from community members, respecting local knowledge, traditions, and aspirations. We view the people of Mandera East not as beneficiaries but as partners and leaders in their own development journey, empowering them to shape their future.

We are committed to creating opportunities for all, regardless of gender, age, ability, or background. Our programs are designed to reach the most marginalized and vulnerable groups within Mandera East Constituency, ensuring that no one is left behind. Inclusivity means actively breaking down barriers to participation and creating spaces where everyone’s voice is heard and valued.

We strive for the highest standards in everything we do. From program design and implementation to organizational management, we constantly seek to improve our effectiveness and impact. Excellence means not settling for mediocrity but pushing boundaries to find innovative solutions to community challenges and delivering services that truly transform lives.
03 Sustainable Impact
We focus on creating lasting change, not temporary fixes. Our approach emphasizes building local capacity, developing resilient systems, and fostering self-reliance rather than dependency. Every initiative we undertake is designed with long-term sustainability in mind, ensuring that positive changes endure for generations to come.

Message from our patron

“My journey to establish the Hussein Weytan Foundation began with a simple question: How can we create lasting change for the most vulnerable in our society? Growing up in Mandera East, I witnessed firsthand both the challenges facing our communities and the incredible resilience and potential of our people, particularly our youth and women.
This Foundation represents my commitment to transformative change—not through temporary fixes, but through empowerment, education, and economic opportunity. I believe that when we invest in people, especially the marginalized and vulnerable, we invest in our collective future.
Every young girl who completes her education, every youth who gains marketable skills, every woman entrepreneur who builds a sustainable business, and every couple who establishes a strong family foundation contributes to building a more prosperous and peaceful Mandera East.
I invite you to join us in this journey. Together, we can create opportunities that transform lives and communities for generations to come.”*
