Meet Our Founder

Wanjiru Mukunga

Wanjiru Mukunga was born in Gitombo and while she moved to America for work and further studies, the village of Gitombo remained dear in her heart. She always wanted to help but didn’t know how to. Then in 2009, she had a vision of a much better Gitombo and decided to go to work to make it a reality. She started PAAV International in 2009 and registered it as a non-profit in America. She would then embark on different projects in Gitombo.

Inspiration

Gitombo Village

Gitombo village, located in Kiambu County, has seen significant socio-economic struggles, particularly for women who primarily serve as laborers in nearby farms, earning very little. Men are mostly engaged in construction or small businesses, but only 27% can fully support their families. Farming in the village is challenging due to poor water supply and inadequate resources. The education system, though improved, still faces obstacles, with many children unable to afford high school fees, leading to a cycle of poverty and limited opportunities for the youth.
