NAIROBI, Kenya, Feb 21 – The AMG Foundation has launched a new community library in Mukuru Kwa Njenga, expanding its footprint to five locations as part of its mission to transform underserved communities through education.

The foundation now operates libraries in Murang’a (Kangunduini and Githumu), Nanyuki, Kibera and Mukuru, providing children with access to books, computers and mentorship. In 2025 alone, its education initiatives recorded more than 50,000 attendances, an 82 percent increase from 2024, reflecting growing demand for safe learning spaces.
