Karibu (“Welcome”) and Pamoja (“Together”) reflect our belief that healing happens when people feel truly seen and supported. From illness to job loss, we help adults and families find resources, guidance, and community—grounded in dignity, clarity, and compassion.

Hope and Community

Together we transform challenges into hope and resilience. Every year, countless families in our community face sudden hardships—illness, job loss, caregiving, and more.

Too often, they feel lost and isolated. We exist to fill that gap with clarity, compassion, and community, ensuring no family walks alone.

Rooted in Experience

Our story began with lived experience. Damaris Waiyaki, our founder, is a medical social worker who has guided countless families through complex systems.

When her daughter was diagnosed with a rare childhood brain cancer at age seven, that journey became personal—fueling her mission to create Karibu Pamoja, her book One Moment At A Time: Strength in Faith, and a foundation built on resilience, courage, and never facing hardship alone.
