Goal
Brighton Jones has always been a company that takes action. #OneTeam for Kenya began with a single client connection and has since sparked a movement.
Since 2016, Brighton Jones teammates and clients have been committed advocates and a source of support for our partner organizations in Kenya. These amazing partners are on the frontlines of the fight against poverty, illness, hunger, and climate change.
Every three years, we tilt our philanthropic focus to prioritize international giving, allowing us to raise multi-year funding that builds capacity and fuels sustainable, strategic growth, helping them to address systemic issues and empower their communities in ways that will last decades—perhaps even generations.
One of the ways your donation will support Kenya is through the Ruben Centre, a refuge providing quality education, healthcare, financial services, and social services to empower children and families in Mukuru. For more information on this or other ways your donation will help, go to

From Kelly & Brian Soligon: "We’ve seen firsthand the courage of the girls at Grace Nanana with our own eyes during our visit to Kenya. These young girls are escaping a violent tradition with nothing but hope—and your donation gives that hope a future. Please join us in making a direct impact to a much needed change."
From Mahmood Ghassemi: "It's difficult to truly understand life in other parts of the world until you experience it firsthand. Kenya is a stunning country, but it's the warmth and spirit of its people that make it truly special. Despite having little in terms of material wealth, they are happy, vibrant, and kind. I've been fortunate to live an incredible life, but few things compare to the joy of supporting young Kenyans and witnessing their beautiful smiles and the deep, genuine gratitude that seems to be part of who they are."
We’ve teamed up with several other client families who are passionate about supporting One Team for Kenya, along with
Garret Carlson, Raksha Tuladhar, Riley Vetto, and Luca Torzillo.
