Founded in 1986, IMANI Marianists has spent nearly four decades transforming lives across Nairobi’s most underserved communities through quality, practical vocational training.
IMANI Marianists is a faith-based organisation under the Catholic Archidiocese of Nairobi and a TVETA approved technical training school, offering vocational skills training.
Founded in 1986, IMANI Marianists started as a family centre supporting women struggling to raise their children. These women gained trade skills to become self-sufficient. Today, through our two training centres and Job Creation Programme, we continue to break the cycle of poverty and build better futures across Nairobi’s communities.
IMANI Marianists has two branches — Maria Training Centre in Eastleigh and Chaminade Training Centre in Mukuru Kwa Njenga. At these institutes, students benefit from job placement experience through our Job Creation Programme — helping break the cycle of poverty.
To envisage the needy and marginalized empowered, enjoy peace and preserve integrity of creation.
To assist the needy be independent and practice the apostolic faith through vocational skills training, mentoring and social economic empowerment.
