The Nasio Trust's mission is to break the cycle of poverty and empower communities in western Kenya to become self-sufficient through education, improved health, and food production. The charity sponsors the education, nutrition, and healthcare of 320 orphaned and vulnerable children (OVC) in an HIV-prone zone of Kakamega County. It also meets the economic needs of the community by running a sustainable agriculture programme training 600 farmers and improving healthcare outcomes by running a Peer Education Programme on Sexual and Reproductive Health. The Nasio Trust aims to keep OVCs within the community and empowers guardians to earn an income. It also runs a medical centre, treating over 19,000 patients in 2022. The charity's ethos ensures that stakeholders are integral to its decision-making. It works closely with schools, local government, health workers, and religious leaders. The mission started in October 2000, when the late Irene Mudenyo found an abandoned baby in a sugarcane plantation on her farm in a small village in western Kenya. Irene's attempts to find the child's parents or relatives proved futile and during the course of her search the extent to which AIDS and HIV related illness had devastated family life in the local community became apparent. Despite being elderly and a grandmother herself, Irene decided to care for the child naming him Moses. These experiences lead to the formation in 2003 of The Nasio Trust by Irene's daughters. From humble beginnings in a roadside kiosk providing one meal a day to fifteen local children, The Nasio Trust has come a long way.
