Representation of Kenyans residing in Western Australia

About

The Kenyan Community In Western Australia (KCWA) is an Australian-based non-profit organ­i­sation formed for the purpose of enhancement of Kenyans living, studying and working in Western Australia (WA) through co-operation and formation of strategic alliances.

KCWA aims to promote a Kenyan community where members support each other to achieve common goals that will benefit the entire community whilst attaining indi­vidual goals.

We are committed to connecting new members of the Kenyan community with those who have more expe­ri­ences and connec­tions in WA so as to help them make the best of their time in WA.

We also endeavour to inte­grate members of the Kenyan community with the wider Western Australian community, government and social welfare agencies. We do this through profes­sional networking for career and business devel­opment, updates on permanent migration requirement trends, assis­tance regarding immi­gration issues as well as organised sports and social functions.
