Transforming lives through books: The Hub Karen and Chemichemi foundation's joint initiative

The Donate@Book Drive kicked off on December 31, 2022, and lasted for a month until January 31, 2023. During this period, we received an overwhelming response from well-wishers and The Hub Karen shoppers, who generously donated a total of 2,017 assorted books. The response was truly heartwarming, and we were humbled by the kindness and generosity of our shoppers.
On February 8, 2023, we were able to hand over the donated books to four deserving schools: Karen Technical Training Institute for the Deaf, Kasarani Treeside Secondary School for the Deaf, Dagoretti Special School, and Waithaka Special School. We were deeply moved by the appreciation and joy that the students expressed upon receiving the books. It was a truly touching moment, and we felt proud to have been able to make a positive impact in their lives.

The Hub Karen joins hands to plant seedlings in the fight against climate change

In partnership with African Forest director Kenya Mutiso, Tinah Lughano - Green kids awards director, Karen Kimani - Miss green 2022, and The Hub Karen, we took the initiative to fight climate change by planting seedlings. The event was held to support the idea that planting a trillion trees globally could be the single most effective way to combat climate change, a belief strongly held by scientists. The initiative was a success and contributed to the ongoing efforts to address the challenge of climate change.

SHOE DRIVE

We had a successful shoe-drive campaign where shoppers were urged to donate to donate shoes to the less fortunate during the festive seasons. The donations were well received and brought smiles to kids, brothers and sisters of Little Sisters of St. Joseph orphanage and Huruma Children's Home.

Conservation

The Hub Mall sponsors Rhino Charge team to boost conservation efforts

For the third year in a row, The Hub Karen mall has announced its sponsorship for the Rhino Charge competition to the tune of Ksh. 500,000, underpinning its commitment towards wildlife conservation in Kenya.

Youth and Sports

The Hub supports Karengata Youth Soccer Association

The Hub Karen has partnered with the Karengata Youth Soccer Association to facilitate some of its programs. The Hub will provide the team with football kits for use in their games. The mall will also offer internship opportunities to the team members. Through this initiative, the Hub Karen is keen to promote skills and leadership for the youth to grow and develop in the work environment and become self-reliant.

Education

The Hub Karen supports community Library

The Hub Karen Mall along with The Rotary Club of Karen have been working towards a Book and Toy drive that will be used in the Library that is being built at The Karen Police Station. The Library will act as a community library. The Hub Karen Mall and The Rotary club are keen on promoting education and will also have reading workshops for the children in the community. The benefits of books collected will also be used for The Karen Technical Institute for the Deaf.

Security

The Hub Karen supports local Police

We believe in community policing and have been supporting the local police in their work. As part of this in 2014, The Hub Karen Mall donated a vehicle to the Karen Police station. The fully fitted Land cruiser has assisted the police in their patrols as they serve the Karen community better. We have also continued to regularly support police station with stationery in partnership with the Rotary Club of Karen to further enhance their capacity.
