Safaricom Plc on Monday unveiled a new brand campaign dubbed “Tuinuane” that is aimed at encouraging Kenyans to uplift one another
In the spirit of “Tuinuane”, Kenya’s largest company by market capitalization intends to empower communities, give students easy and simple access to learning materials, and unveil innovative products and services that give customers value for money.
“Tuinuane is borrowed from the spirit of generosity that Kenyans are well known for. The Tuinuane spirit is about all of us having a renewed sense of inspiration to do what is right by uplifting others, especially during these trying times. For Safaricom, the Tuinuane spirit is our way of saying that we want to work with Kenyans to help them meet their dreams and aspirations.”- Peter Ndegwa, CEO.
Under the campaign, Safaricom Foundation’s Ndoto Zetu initiative will drive Safaricom’s engagement with the community. Since its inception in 2019, Ndoto Zetu has reached close to 3 million Kenyans. This year, the Safaricom Foundation aims to reach further 2 million people with projects worth 100 million shillings.
Kenyans wishing to fulfill their community dreams can send a written submission through the website or visit any of the Telco’s Retail Shop across the country and fill in an application form for a chance to have their community dream realized.
