Where we've come from

Our History

The Hamisi People in Diaspora (USA in particular) established The Hamisi Community Development Fund, Inc (HACODEFU) in 2010 to identify and take stock/action on problems the Fund could uniquely influence through their experience on the ground (at home in Hamisi Kenya) and as stitched in their global knowledge. HACODEFU works out to strengthen the capacity of individuals in Hamisi District of Kenya to alleviate poverty by strengthening their economic development, improve health, agriculture, education, Democracy, and governance and protect the environment.

The Fund targets its success through initiates of change by fostering partnerships among governments, businesses, nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), and private citizens. It focuses these collaborations to develop programs that leverage the expertise, resources, and passions of all sectors and turn good intentions into measurable results. The members identify their common problem they want to solve, assure themselves that what they are about to do is one of the ways to solve the problem.

HACODEFU is echoed as a strategy for poverty reduction and improving members’ livelihoods through various interventions. Interventions like input provision, agricultural advisory services, market access, bulk inputs purchases and access to credit are the major drivers for forming HACODEFU.

Our goal and approach is capacity building and advocacy programs through Community and farmer empowerment by training stakeholders in various demand-driven aspects of improved agricultural and animal production technologies including training and credit. HACODEFU’s approach is a multi-faceted one, but generally focusing on the services to recipients for their bright future with a series of activities from the production to the point when it reaches the final consumer.
