Who are we

Effective Animal Advocacy Kenya (EAAK) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to advancing the welfare of animals through evidence-based strategies, community outreach, and education. We work across Kenya to promote compassionate living,
influence policy, and empower advocates to make a lasting impact for animals.

What we do

We focus on three core pillars to drive meaningful change:

• Capacity Building

We empower individuals, communities, and institutions with the knowledge and tools needed to promote better animal welfare
practices, particularly in farming systems.

• Awareness Creation

Through education, community outreach, and stakeholder engagement, we raise public consciousness about the importance
of animal welfare and its connection to human and environmental well-being.

• Campaigning

We lead and support strategic campaigns that advocate for stronger animal welfare policies, better farming practices, and a
more compassionate food system.

• Advocacy for humane practices in Key sectors

Drive public understanding of humane and sustainable practices by highlighting the role of ethical treatment in agriculture,
urban planning, and legislation. And advocating for evidence-based policies that prioritise animal welfare and ecological
sustainability.

• Strategic partnership and community engagement

Collaborate with educational institutions, NGOs, and local government to launch animal welfare programs tailored to
community needs.

• Research

Our Mission & Values

Every initiative we launch is crafted to strengthen communities and steward resources responsibly. By sharing transparent insights and actionable guidance, we aim to multiply good work and spark collaboration across causes and continents.

Transparency & Stewardship

We treat every donation, whether it’s a single coin in a collection jar or a seven-figure grant, with the same rigorous care. Detailed impact reports, quarterly independent audits, and real-time project dashboards allow supporters to trace each dollar from receipt to result.

By publishing success metrics and setbacks side-by-side, we make room for honest dialogue, faster course-corrections, and deeper trust between our team, our partners, and the communities we serve.

Inclusive Collaboration

Sustainable change only happens when those most affected help design the solution. Before launching any program we convene listening circles, translate materials into local languages, and invite community leaders, youth advocates, and elders to co-create project goals.

We also forge cross-sector partnerships, pairing NGOs with small businesses, universities, and faith groups, because diverse expertise sparks innovation and ensures that our programs respect cultural context while scaling effectively. .

Lifelong Service

Charity is not a single event; it’s a lifelong rhythm of empathy in action. We nurture that rhythm through mentorship pipelines and hands-on training that equip volunteers to grow from one-time helpers into seasoned servant-leaders. Workshops on trauma-informed care and systemic advocacy empower people to address root causes, not just symptoms.

By celebrating service milestones and providing ongoing educational resources, we foster a global network committed to transforming compassion into enduring, generational impact.
