PETRAD AID serves widows, children, youth, women, misplaced persons, people with disabilities, and marginalized communities across Kenya through integrated humanitarian and development programmes.
PETRAD AID works with the most vulnerable individuals and communities in Kenya. Every programme is designed around their needs, delivered with dignity, and measured for lasting impact.
Widows are a core priority for PETRAD AID. When a husband dies, many women face immediate loss of home, income, and social support. We provide economic inclusion, legal aid, psychosocial support, and emergency relief to help widows rebuild with dignity.
Children in vulnerable households — especially orphans and those in widow-led families — receive education support, nutrition assistance, learning materials, and protection services to ensure every child can access their right to safety, learning, and wellbeing.
Young people facing unemployment, exclusion, and limited opportunities receive skills training, peace building engagement, livelihood support, digital capacity building, and pathways to economic participation and civic engagement.
Women and girls facing gender-based discrimination, exclusion, and economic vulnerability receive targeted support including savings groups, legal literacy, rights awareness, health outreach, and leadership development opportunities.
Misplaced persons and internally displaced persons in urban Kenya receive emergency relief, livelihood support, legal protection, community integration assistance, and access to basic services to help them rebuild their lives with dignity.
People with disabilities and their caregivers receive targeted inclusion support, advocacy, accessibility assistance, livelihood opportunities, and access to community resources — ensuring no one is left behind in PETRAD AID's programmes.
PETRAD AID believes that real transformation begins with people. We work closely with communities to identify needs, strengthen local capacities, and design practical interventions that improve lives and build resilience.
Our beneficiaries are not passive recipients — they are active participants in their own transformation, and every programme is co-designed with the communities we serve.
"Every person we serve is not just a beneficiary — they are a partner in transformation. Our work begins with their dignity, their voice, and their right to a life of hope."
