About Us
- A Message from Gary:
- "As the sole sponsor of KenyaX, I'm deeply committed to empowering youth across Africa, beginning with Kenya. KenyaX is more than just an initiative; it's a transformative platform that integrates real-world work experience into education while providing students with a stipend.
To bring this vision to life, I've channeled my earnings and tips from my work as a driver directly into funding KenyaX. This personal investment reflects my unwavering belief in the potential of African youth. However, I must be transparent - these funds are limited. KenyaX serves as the vital platform for WiseNxt students, offering unique opportunities for career exploration and development. I chose to support this program because it perfectly aligns with my vision of youth empowerment and career readiness. But to truly make a difference and expand our reach, we need your help. Additional support will allow us to accommodate more students and broaden our impact, giving more young Kenyans the chance to discover their potential and shape their futures. Together, we can create a brighter future for youth across Africa. Your support, in any form, can help turn this vision into reality. Join us in this journey of empowerment and transformation."
- Why KenyaX?
KenyaX emerged from a shared vision to transform career preparation for Kenyan youth. Gary, with his years of experience observing the gap between traditional education and real-world job requirements, developed the innovative concept of Educaship - a holistic approach combining education, career guidance, and hands-on experience. Kevin, an IT Project Manager, Digital Education Champion and a core founder of KenyaX, recognized the potential of this model for Kenya and partnered with Gary to bring this revolutionary idea to life in the country.
At its heart, KenyaX is a manifestation of this larger Educaship vision. Our focus is on empowering students and youths to discover their unique strengths and explore diverse career paths before making pivotal decisions about their future. By bridging the divide between academic learning and practical workplace skills, KenyaX aims to equip young Kenyans with the tools, experiences, and insights they need to thrive in an ever-evolving job market. This collaborative initiative represents a commitment to nurturing Kenya's next generation of professionals, entrepreneurs, and leaders, ensuring they are well-prepared to shape both their own futures and that of their nation.
- Our Mission
We believe every young person deserves the opportunity to explore various career paths and discover their strengths before making crucial decisions about their future. KenyaX provides a hands-on, immersive experience that bridges the gap between traditional education and real-world job requirements.
- Partnership with WiseNxt
KenyaX is proud to serve as a platform for WiseNxt students. This partnership allows us to expand our reach and provide even more comprehensive support to young Kenyans in their career exploration journey.
