Moses decided to form his own non-profit, called Urban Impact Kenya (UIK), to focus on this mission. UIK trains leaders and brings ordinary people together, equipping them with skills and a plan to harness the human resources that exist in urban communities. This innovative training model, called Sustainable Livelihoods, was created by Moses. Moses splits his time and energy between his day job, his young family, and leading the work of UIK. UIK is a work of heart and dedication, providing opportunities for hope and advancement, through practical tools and support, for Moses’s former neighbors and other families in Kenya’s urban neighborhoods. As an energetic and inspiring leader, Moses has galvanized a vibrant team of volunteers to help him carry this work forward.
