Our Story…

Inspired by the efforts of Homeless World Cup and daily challenges of living in poverty in Korogocho slum, our Founder/Director Mr. Hamilton Ayiera formed AYiERA iNiTiATiVE and was joined by like-minded youths. We work to positively transform the pathetic situations experienced by majority of Korogocho slum dwellers by using sports (Slum Footie) to create positive social change, with a strong desire to positively change the desparate situation of slum children, youths and community at large.

Mission

• To empower slum dwellers and disadvantaged people of Korogocho Slum to become socially and economically engaged in the community.

• To facilitate economic self reliance for Korogocho slum dwellers and deter them from anti-social activities by providing them with life changing opportunities and initiatives that promotes their development and that of the slum community at large.

Vision

Using sports (Slum Footie) to uplift the lives of slum children, youths and other slum dwellers and be a source of hope.

Slum Footie... Is a football game of 5 versus 5 players, initiated by AYiERA iNiTiATiVE, and acts as an entry point to other empowerment programs and is also used as a community mobilisation tool
