Partnerships
Hosts, funders, schools, and cultural allies make free programming in Kibera possible. Explore who they are — and how your organization can join.
Why this page exists
Strong NGO sites (from UNICEF’s partnership hubs to charity logo walls) don’t just list names. They show who partners are, what role they play, and how new partners can engage. That’s the standard this page follows.
Inuka’s partnerships keep the studio open, bring movement arts into Nairobi schools, and connect Kibera youth to regional and international culture.
Partner ecosystem
Filter by how each partner strengthens Inuka. Logos and photos are drawn from public partner sites and Inuka’s own studio archive.

Hosts the Inuka Studio in Kibera at a community-accessible rate — the physical safe space where free weekly breaking, Capoeira, and girls’ sessions happen.
Together we: keep after-school hours supervised, visible, and rooted in a trusted community institution.
Long-term U.S. nonprofit partner that helps administer grants, financial reporting, and accountability — making Inuka fundable and transparent to institutional donors.
Together we: sustain core programming, meet compliance standards, and grow beyond one-off gifts.
Outreach and residency partner. Fee-for-service workshops and performances help generate earned income that subsidises free classes in Kibera.
Together we: bring Capoeira, breaking, and movement arts into formal education while funding community access.
Demo classes and Capoeira showcases that prove Inuka’s curriculum travels into private-school settings — and creates visibility for Kibera artists.
Together we: expand School & Community programming and open doors for teaching artists.
Kibera-based exchange partner for joint workshops — breaking, Afro dance, taekwondo, and Capoeira — that widen youth networks beyond a single studio.
Together we: co-host community sports days and cross-crew learning.
Cultural venue partner for public workshops and youth performances — connecting Inuka artists to city-wide audiences.
Together we: stage learning and performance beyond the informal settlement.

Ways to partner
Clear offers convert better than a vague “get in touch.” Pick the lane that fits your organization.
Support free studio hours, girls’ sanitary pads, festivals, or a community sports day. Ideal for foundations and CSR teams.
Schools and community groups book Breakdance, Capoeira Angola, Ballet, or Afro-Dance — fees help keep Kibera classes free.
Venues, crews, and cultural institutes co-host exchanges, rodas, and public performances with Inuka youth.
People power
