Service is the outward expression of our communal love. Through our service, inspired by our spiritual growth and connection, we build relationships and translate wisdom into our care for ourselves, our communities, and our Earth.
Senje Wekoye Global Community focuses on mothers and children and their communities, in service to our global descendants. Connecting globally, nurturing local leadership and initiatives, for the wellbeing of us all.
The "Senje" Tradition: Named after the Luhya heritage, a "Senje" (Auntie) is a cornerstone of the family who acts as a protector, teacher, and communal mother.
Kinship Ties: We serve as a bridge to community-based organizations, empowering local leadership and fostering direct lines of relationship rooted in mutual respect.
Sacred Symbols: Our service is symbolized by the mother and child, representing protection and growth, and the pot and broom, which signify the essential work of nourishment and care.
Community leadership is a sacred invitation to nurture our collective spirit through a supportive framework of shared work.

“A tree has roots in the soil yet reaches to the sky. It tells us that in order to aspire we need to be grounded and that no matter how high we go it is from our roots that we draw sustenance.” ~Wangarĩ Maathai
