The importance of privacy

At Act Empowered, we place utmost importance on respecting the privacy and dignity of the children and families we assist. While many organizations utilize the images and personal information of children to evoke emotions and increase the likelihood of donations, we have made a conscious decision to protect their identities. We firmly believe that safeguarding their privacy is paramount.

 

On our website, you will notice that we refrain from sharing pictures of the children we support. Instead, we have collaborated with Murad, a talented team member and photographer from Kenya, whose captivating images capture the essence of our work. If you wish to explore more of his work, we encourage you to visit his Instagram page @muradsalimofficial.

 

As a valued supporter or potential volunteer, we understand that you may have a genuine desire to visit our site and personally connect with the children we serve. We wholeheartedly welcome such visits and appreciate your eagerness to interact with these extraordinary young individuals. Our dedicated local team will be delighted to facilitate your visit, providing you with an opportunity to meet and greet the team. You are welcome to greet the children and families on the premisses you are there to teach or do volunteer work. We do not encourage adults from the diaspora and internationals to interact and create bonds with the children that end up with separation. This is to protect the children's emotional wellbeing. 

 

At Act Empowered, we are committed to transparency, compassion, and upholding the rights and dignity of every child and family we assist. We sincerely appreciate your understanding and support in ensuring a safe and respectful environment for these remarkable individuals.
