TECNO moves to the aid of Korogocho floods victims

In a show of solidarity with the flood-stricken communities in Kenya, TECNO, a mobile technology company, has collaborated with local leaders to provide aid to those affected by the recent floods in the country.

The relief efforts orchestrated by TECNO included the distribution of essential supplies like food, bedding, and water bottles to help alleviate the struggles faced by the flood-affected individuals.

Wilfred Odera, IMC Manager at TECNO Mobile-Kenya, emphasized the company’s commitment to offering immediate assistance to those in urgent need.

The devastating floods in Kenya have forced over 300,000 people from their homes, as reported by the Kenya Red Cross, impacting numerous lives, including some within the TECNO team.

Witnessing the distress of a colleague who suffered losses due to the floods, TECNO was spurred into action to not only aid their staff but also extend support to the larger Kenyan populace, as expressed by Mr. Odera.

Testimonials from the beneficiaries of TECNO’s aid initiatives have been overwhelmingly positive, with individuals expressing gratitude for the company’s support, with one recipient acknowledging the impact on their family’s well-being and expressing optimism for the future.

TECNO’s recent Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) endeavors underscore their dedication to making a meaningful difference in society.

Recognizing the widespread repercussions of the calamitous floods in Kenya, TECNO reiterated its commitment to community welfare and outlined forthcoming CSR projects.

Among these plans is the renovation of stadiums to promote football in Kenya, with an emphasis on nurturing local talent and encouraging youth engagement in sports, all set to kick off in July.

TECNO’s consistent focus on social impact was highlighted through its earlier collaboration with footballer Dennis Oliech to facilitate a football training camp for under-15s in Nairobi, Mombasa, and Nyeri post the successful Africa Cup of Nations campaign. This initiative sought to cultivate young talent and instill a passion for the sport among aspiring athletes.

At the core of TECNO’s ethos is the belief in the significance of giving back and fostering enduring positive transformations within the communities they engage with, as echoed by Mr. Odera.

The company remains dedicated to fostering lasting positive changes in the regions it serves, exemplifying its unwavering commitment to social responsibility.
