Transforming Tsavo through Global Angels

Since 2017, we have been partnering with the Global Angels Foundation on their sustainable development project in Tsavo, Kenya, transforming the livelihoods of the community in the Itinyi Valley. In the face of drought and the increasing impacts of climate change on the community, our year-round support makes a difference every day. We promote sustainable agriculture, infrastructure projects, small businesses, education for farmers, and access to clean drinking water.

Employees in focus: Making a big impact together with Global Angels

Every year, Robert Walters sends dedicated employees to Tsavo, Kenya, to work on exciting projects and experience firsthand the transformation happening in the region. Let Jonas Hirsekorn, one of our talented consultants from Hamburg, tell you about how he made a big impact as a volunteer with Global Angels in Kenya.

Jonas witnessed the challenges the community in Tsavo faces due to climate change firsthand. For him, the visit was a wake-up call to reflect on how quickly we forget privileges like easy access to electricity, clean water, or medication in our busy daily lives.

The work done by the Global Angels Foundation inspired Jonas. For instance, the organization supports the construction of new water tanks to provide access to clean drinking water and contributes to sustainable farming practices locally. It provides schoolchildren with access to food every year, thus helping them towards a better future.

Jonas is grateful for this experience and wants to express his support for the work of the Global Angels Foundation. He believes that each of us can make a difference and hopes that this organization will continue to bring about positive change.
