Power of Humanity Walk, an event that is coordinated by the Kenya Red Cross on an annual basis, sees a coming together of many individuals, entities, and organizations from all corners of the country in order to increase awareness about humanitarian issues and empower vulnerable communities. This event helps emphasize the fact that only when we work together and take collective responsibility will we be able to resolve the humanitarian issues and make a difference in the lives of those in need. By joining hands with the Kenya Red Cross and being part of their 2026 walk, SEKU demonstrated its commitment towards serving the community.

By associating itself with organizations that have the same vision as it does regarding sustainable development and empowering the people, SEKU is able to continue being an institution that takes responsibility and makes sure that it brings about a positive change.
Acceptance of this Certificate of Appreciation is not only going to be a recognition of what SEKU has been doing so far but will also be a motivating factor to continue putting efforts into such projects and initiatives that will improve the state of society. While the University works towards achieving its vision of transforming the lives of people through quality education, research, innovation and services, it remains fully dedicated to initiatives that include inclusiveness and compassion of sustainable community development.
