We support needy individuals to gain access to rehabilitation and restoration services in their recovery from drug/substance addiction.

// OUR IMPACT

The Initiatives that Inspire Our Existence

The Foundation was birthed out of the needs in our society identified in the populations that our partner institutions have served over the years.

Sponsorship for Kids

The Gatehouse School, one of our partners, has identified a need to support children from the Bangladesh informal settlement in Rongai to attain elementary education. NJEMA seeks to make the sponsored children’s education sustainable.

Rehabilitation for Adults

Turningpoint House, which provides rehabilitation services for individuals struggling with drug and substance abuse, including alcohol, has identified the need to assist vulnerable individuals to access the services. NJEMA seeks to address this need.

Mentorship for Boys and Girls

Turningpoint Counseling Solutions rolled a program for conducting rite of passage services for boys and mentorship services for girls as they transition to adulthood while preventing FGM practices for girls. NJEMA seeks to help needy boys and girls to access these services.

Mentorship

The Foundation envisions a society where young people of all ages
get the mentorship they need to be responsible members of society.
Growth is at the core of the mentorship programs we run.
