Brothers Kivi and Philip Ondiege
Master minds and executors
These two have “come from far” as one might say. They know the school of hard knocks. From not knowing where they were going to sleep at night to access to education and many things in between they have gone through it and over come. Many people do not believe that they were once fighting an up hill battle with few people to uplift them.
They were able to make it to where they are now because they kept their eye on the prize. They worked hard and did not let other things distract them. They also had people who uplifted them and opened doors for them that would have other wise been locked.
Because of their life experiences, they make a dream team. They share a vision of opening doors for those that have them closed. Philip is now based in Texas, USA works on planning, organization, and finances. Kivi is located in Nairobi, Kenya and is a miracle worker. All the things that need to happen, he makes it happen. He makes the contacts and ensures the follow through. Without him, it would not be possible to have the successes we have had.
Kivi and Philip spend countless hours every week on the phone talking through detail of the lates project. They take such time and care to help people in situations that they once were. I see their joy when they succeed and their pain when thing don’t work out as planned
Pretty much the TLDR is they are rock stars and I have never met such a band of superheros.
