Who We Are
Connecting African youths to Skills, the Marketplace and to Character.
Across Kenya and Africa, over 70% of the population is under 35 — a generation full of potential, yet facing youth unemployment as high as 67%, a widening skills gap, limited mentorship, and few pathways into real opportunity.
Grounded Generation Foundation is a linkage institution. We walk with African youths aged 15–35 through connected programmes — Clarity Mentorship, Skills Training (via accredited partners), Employability Training & Support and Entrepreneurship Mentorship — with Professional Mentorship running across all of them — linking them to jobs, internships, enterprise and market opportunities locally and globally, and grounding them in character, values and integrity.
Vision
A generation of African youths who know who they are — equipped with skills, thriving in the marketplace at home and across the world, and grounded in character.

Where the jobs are
We don't just train youth and hope for jobs. We track where the jobs are — in the green economy, renewable energy, climate-smart agriculture and the digital economy — then prepare youth to fill them and build sustainable enterprises of their own.
