Our Work

Transforming Communities Through Sustainable Development

Early Childhood Development & Education

We establish foundational environments that are secure, stimulating, and supportive, ensuring enhanced child development and building the capacity of caregivers to deliver consistent, nurturing, and responsive care.

Improved Livelihoods & Food Security

Empowering over 2 million households through climate-smart agriculture, drought-resistant crops, agroforestry, and value chains that boost incomes, enhance resilience, and strengthen food security.

Health, HIV Advocacy & Social Change

Reaching over 17,000 individuals directly by improving health-seeking behavior, reducing infections, lowering AIDS-related deaths, and addressing GBV while supporting high-risk communities.

Household and Economic Strengthening

ADS-Nyanza drives impactful socio-economic initiatives to significantly enhance household productivity, self-reliance, and long-term resilience. Our efforts integrate sustainable livelihood development while addressing critical barriers faced by vulnerable households.

Social Behaviour Change

Behavior Change programs increased male caregiving by 71%, reduced GBV, and improved maternal and child health, reducing child malnutrition from 14 cases to zero within one year.

Civic Engagement & Accountability

Empowering communities to influence county budgets, improve public services, and advocate for the rights of marginalized groups, widows, and orphans.

Peacebuilding & Conflict Resolution

Through the Western Kenya Peace Initiative, over 30,000 people reached with peacebuilding efforts, reducing conflict among fisherfolk and addressing retrogressive cultural practices.

"Moments That Matter: A Mother's Journey"

"

Joining the Moments that Matter program changed my life. I learned practical skills to support early childhood development — from learning activities to nutrition and creating a safe space.

Because of this training I feel confident and empowered to give the children in my care the best start possible. I have seen them grow and thrive beyond my expectations.

FROM BENEFICIARY TO BUSINESSWOMAN

From Struggle to Self-Reliance

"

Before ADS Nyanza's PESP program, I struggled as a single mother to provide for my three children.

Through training and support from my youth group, I learned farming skills and started a market business. Now I can pay school fees, meet our needs, and live with dignity. The program gave me hope and a path to self-reliance.

Savings With Education: A Path to Dignity

"Being chosen and trained through the Savings With Education program made me feel worth much more. I expanded my hairdressing business and improved my cassava farming, now earning KSH 700 per day."

This has allowed me to enjoy a balanced diet, sell extra produce, and support my children's education.
