Bingwa Services has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Kenya Alliance of Residents Association (KARA) to create job opportunities for six million skilled Kenyan youths within three years.
Funded by the World Bank, the partnership plans to equip 1,000 service providers with marketable soft skills, creating consistent gig jobs and reliable income for up to 500 youths within three months.
Further, the project aims to expand across Kenya and prepare the workforce for international markets facing labor shortages.
According to Bingwa CEO Njihia Njoroge, the partnership will revolutionize employability by creating a secret human capital pool.
“Our collaboration with KARA is about more than connecting service providers with residents. It’s about transforming Kenya’s economic and social landscape by harnessing the potential of our skilled Generation Z youth. We are acting to restore and reconcile, addressing the pain of our youth and missed opportunities.”

“ By combining our respective strengths towards realization of the objectives of this great innovation, we are confident that success is assured,” he said.
