About us
|
Wikimedia Kenya is a chapter of Wikimedia that serves Kenya. The Chapter exists to help collect, develop and disseminate freely accessible and usable information (and other pieces of educational, cultural and historic content) which we accomplish by supporting the charitable activities of the Foundation.
The Chapter is a separate organization from the Wikimedia foundation and has no editorial control over Wikipedia or any other project hosted by the Foundation.
