KenGen PLC actively participates in the welfare of communities in and around the areas it works as part of its Corporate Social Investment strategy. The company believes every child has the right to education and wants to ensure education access to a maximum number of children.
Through our educational initiatives, scholarship grants, and school infrastructure development projects, we ensure access to education, with a focus on learning outcomes and retention for Kenya’s future generation. KenGen offers support to schools for improving their infrastructure and also provides scholarships.
Recently, the company took on the obligation of providing 250 beds for Inkoirienito Primary School in the Narok East Constituency through the KenGen Foundation on 22 September. The school was in desperate need of beds as majority of the boarders were sleeping on the floor.
The school, which has a population of 862, is the only boarding primary school in the area with 416 pupils living on campus. It boasts one of the highest mean scores in the area from last year’s KCPE examinations, a remarkable 319 out of 500 marks. It has the highest population of pupils within the location with some of its boarders coming from as far as Nairobi County.
KenGen Foundation contracted Numerical Machining Complex to make the double decker beds and had them delivered, with the school Head Teacher Mr. Simpiri Kudate, overseing the whole process. The donation of the beds was quite timely as schools resume for the last term of this year next week.
KenGen lays great emphasis on creating a pool of trained, competent and patriotic manpower that will build a vibrant economy and transform this country into a middle-income economy by the year 2030.
Through the KenGen Foundation, the company offers learning opportunities for bright but needy secondary school and university students from communities living around the Company’s power stations. Currently, the company is sponsoring more than 300 students in secondary schools and universities across the country.
