TRANSFORMING LIVES
Join me in creating a lasting impact and legacy.

by Mwatha Mbugua

MY STORY
Born in Kiandutu Slum, Thika, I attended Garissa Road Primary, Gatumaini Primary, and Thika High before pursuing software engineering at Kisii University. After graduation, I navigated startups and secured a role at a top Kenyan tech firm. Though professionally stable since 2016, my success feels hollow. Every day, I see peers left behind—youth trapped in cycles of poverty, crime, and hopelessness.

This disconnect led me to ask: How can success matter if it doesn’t lift others up?

What can we do to change this narrative?

THE CHALLENGE
Glaring statistics
In Kenya, 8.5% (KNBS, 2023) of slum youth drop out of school. Without purpose, they become statistics—not leaders. But what if we could rewrite this story?
Broken families put youth at risk of dropping out, crime, and drug addiction.
Youth unemployment leads to poverty, and crime.
Empowering purpose-driven leaders can transform communities and build a brighter future for Kenya.
THE SOLUTION
Here’s how we’re rewriting it.
Purpose-Driven Leadership
By empowering one leader, we ignite a chain reaction. Each mentor guides four youths, who then strengthen families and communities.
This is not idealism—it’s a proven model. Here’s how we do it.
MIZIZI PROGRAM
Mizizi is a 10-week practical discipleship program focused on helping youths connect with God, their purpose, and others. Through the nurture of leadership and creative gifts, participants grow in their faith. I envision Mizizi graduates equally discipling other youths through the program. 80% of participants report renewed purpose.
Testimonials
Currently taking through 25 St. Pauls University students through the Mizizi Program. Below are their views so far
Do you have any testimonies since joining mizizi?
I've seen God. Also, there were some strongholds I was battling with, including unforgiveness but lately I'm handling and overcoming them, I thank God for that🥳🤗
— Flo
I can say that Mizizi Programme has really been impactful in my life. Each day I learn new things from the lessons in that book. The programme has really helped me grow spiritually in all aspects of life and has equiped me with a lot of knowledge for example the concept of Sin, holiness, righteousness, Identity in Christ.
— Joan
First as a priest I really want to appreciate the Gen Z's on the forum for their commitments, sharing the word of God with them is a great inspiration.

FEARLESS INSTITUTE BOOTCAMP
The Fearless Institute Bootcamp is a year-long leadership program that trains and sends out leaders to bring change in the world.
We don’t just get trained as leaders—we are deployed. Imagine 50 mentors annually, each transforming four lives. That’s 200 futures reshaped every year.
But to fuel this change, we need partners like you.
MY INVITATION TO YOU
Partnership in Kind
Join me to sow seeds of hope and unite with me in positivity through your prayers, backing, and empowering words.
Monetary Partnership
Make a lasting difference with either:
One-time support
  • Choose any amount that touches your heart
  • Select a specific budget line to fully fund
Monthly contributions

Any amount helps towards our goal
Here’s how your partnership creates ripples of change.
THE INVESTMENT
Your shilling isn’t just money—it’s a lifeline for a future leader.
Urgency: “Every day without action means another family in despair. Your support today decides whether 2025 becomes a year of hope or lost potential.”
VISION OF THE FUTURE: HOPE RESTORED
A Kenya where slums breed leaders, not casualties. Strong families. Thriving communities. This starts with you.
Let's break the cycle
I escaped Kiandutu’s cycle—now, let’s ensure thousands more do too.
Meet Jane, a Mizizi graduate. Once trapped in poverty, she now runs a youth center in Kiandutu, mentoring 15 girls. Your support creates more Janes.
