Who We Are

Built on Care. Rooted in Community.

Shining Star Centre is a registered nonprofit organization dedicated to making a real, lasting difference in the lives of people with disabilities and vulnerable community members across Kenya.

"We believe that every person — regardless of ability — deserves dignity, support, and the opportunity to live a full life."

For more than seven years, our team has worked hand-in-hand with individuals, families, and communities — delivering disability support programs and menstrual hygiene initiatives that address the most pressing needs with consistency and care.

We are a registered 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization, operating between Kenya and the United States, fully accountable to the communities we serve.

Disability Support Program

Care and Support for People with Disabilities

We provide essential care, practical support, and community inclusion for people living with disabilities of all kinds. Our work ensures that individuals with disabilities are not overlooked — that they receive the assistance, respect, and opportunities they deserve.

From direct community outreach to support for families caring for a person with a disability, our team walks alongside those we serve with consistency and genuine commitment.

Health & Dignity Program

Menstrual Hygiene & Dignity for Every Girl

We distribute sanitary supplies and deliver health education directly to girls and young women, helping them manage their menstrual health with dignity and confidence — and keeping them in school without interruption.

Our dignity drives, paired with open community conversations around menstrual health, work to dismantle the stigma that too often sidelines girls when they need to be learning.

Real Impact

Before & After

Every gift changes a real life. Here is what that looks like — no names, because dignity means their story belongs to them, but the transformation is real.

Mobility Restored

She could not leave her own doorstep. Now she moves freely.

Living with a physical disability, she had no way to get to the market, to church, or to see a doctor without being carried. Shining Star Centre provided her with a hand-powered tricycle — and for the first time, she can go where she needs to go, on her own.

A Home, Not a Handout

Joram slept in a rusted iron shack. Today he has a home.

For years Joram lived in a crumbling structure of rusted sheets and sacking — no secure door, no protection from the rain, no dignity. Supporters of Shining Star Centre funded the building of a proper home for him, and the community gathered to dedicate it together. He also received a wheelchair, so the home he now owns is one he can actually move around in.
