Equipping youth with accredited vocational skills and Christian mentorship for sustainable employment and entrepreneurial success.
Transforming Kenya's Future Through Skills and Faith.
Our Story
From Vision to Reality
In 2025, ADIA Empowerment Centre was born from a powerful partnership between Freedom Church Nairobi Campus and Amani Foundation. Faced with Kenya’s staggering 35% youth unemployment rate, we knew action was needed not just programs, but transformation.
Our founders recognized that breaking the cycle of poverty required more than temporary solutions. It demanded a holistic approach combining practical skills training, spiritual guidance, and community support. Today, ADIA stands as a beacon of hope in Nairobi, where young lives are transformed through the power of education, faith, and opportunity.
