Who We Are
Capture Foundation International was founded in 2006 by five individuals whose relatives were infected with HIV/AIDS. Initially, the organization aimed to combat the stigma and discrimination faced by those living with the virus.
In 2009, the members realized that discrimination extended beyond just those infected, affecting individuals in education, treatment, job opportunities, business skills, and other social activities.
On 5th December 2011 the organization formalized its registration as a registered Capture Foundation International under reg no: op/218/0511/11/0610/7518, to reflect its membership who would be drawn from all over Kenya and abroad in order to fight the discrimination by creating an enabling environment where everybody through the NGO is given equal opportunities in all aspect of their social cultural and economic re-integration.
Currently, the organization has about eight thousand members from all over the country. It is assisting orphans, the aged, the poor and the needy by establishing free VCT Centres, health clinics, homes for orphans and aged and Educational centres.
