More information

 

Poverty Eradication Network (PEN) was registered in Kenya by the Non-Governmental Organisation (NGO) Coordination Bureau on December 1, 2001 and began operations, from its headquarters in Nairobi, on November 4, 2002. PEN was founded for the specific purpose of strengthening not-for-profit groups and organisations across the complete spectrum of civil society throughout East Africa. PEN’s founders recognized that a high percentage of grassroots development initiatives and locally driven civil society organisations died a natural death after the initial motivation and energy behind their formation had subsided.
