Wide Rescue Initiative Organization (WIRIO)

Über uns

Wide Rescue Initiative Organization (WIRIO) is a National Grassroots Charitable Organization found in Kisii, Kenya in March 2007.
It is dedicated on environmental conservation, agroforestry, education, microfinance, ecotourism and women and community empowerment projects, among others. We work directly with indigenous communities and have initiated several sustainable projects, many already run autonomously thanks to external support.

Our mission is to conserve the environment, forests and protection of biodiversity, nature and invertebrates, as well as the protection of water resources, water, sanitation, tree planting and to improve the livelihoods of indigenous communities through agricultural development and sustainable agroforestry.

What we do
• Education: Teachers are needed in local high-schools and kindergartens, specially a new one built by WIRIO thanks to fundraising from volunteers
• Medical Support: Doctors, nurses and clinicians are an urgent need in local hospitals and medical centers
• Environment: Several initiatives are organized by WIRIO sponsored by Carbon Credit projects. Help is needed to carry them and support local farmers
• Microfinance: Most of Kenya are small farmers that survive with less than a day. They need help to improve their farms from the business perspective. Volunteer's advice can make a great impact on their daily life
• Women Empowerment: In a word: Women's empowerment means equality. Unfortunately in Kenya women don't have the same opportunities and help to revert this situation is extremely appreciated by the community

Dickson Omandi is the Founder and President of the Wide Rescue Initiative Organization (WIRIO).
