One Woman's Resolve
to Fight Covid-19

"Ms Peris Wakarura joined the war against Covid-19 by stalling her construction project and using the funds to fumigate public places, including police stations."

Nation Africa — Kenya's leading daily newspaper — featured our founder Apostle Peris Wakarura Ngugi for her extraordinary sacrifice and community spirit during the Covid-19 pandemic. She sold trees worth KSh 160,000, redirected construction funds, and distributed sanitisers, fumigation equipment, and protective materials to boda boda riders and matatu operators — all at her own expense. That selfless act of faith became the seed of what is today Okoa Humanitarian CBO.

How Okoa Was Born

When the first Covid-19 case was announced in Kenya, Apostle Peris didn't wait — she acted. Within days she had redirected her personal savings, organised fumigation of public spaces, and was distributing supplies freely to her community. Nation Africa called it "one woman's resolve."

Born from Crisis,
Built on Calling

Okoa Humanitarian C.B.O is a charitable, non-political, safety-oriented, and non-profit making organisation. The concept was born during the Covid-19 pandemic — when founder Peris Wakarura Ngugi answered what she believed was a divine calling to serve and save society. Okoa means Save in Swahili — and saving lives is what we do every day.

We focus specifically on orphaned and vulnerable youth aged 17–35 — a group that falls between the cracks of most support systems. They face lack of guidance, limited opportunities, and unmet basic needs. We are here to change that.

🧠
Mental Nurturing
Counselling, mentorship, and guidance to help youth process their pain and find direction.
🙏
Spiritual Growth
Grounded in faith — we help young people discover their God-given identity and purpose.
💪
Physical Support
Food, clothing, shelter, healthcare — meeting the real, immediate needs of every young person we serve.
❤️
Emotional Healing
Creating safe spaces where youth aged 17–35 feel seen, valued, and supported to heal and grow.
