Joyce Kairu

Founder and CEO, Purity Elderly Care Foundation

Joyce funded the Foundion in honour of her late mother Purity Wanjiru. Her age and condition prompted Joyce to leave her well paying job as a project manager in South Africa and she now serves the very vulnerable elderly people of society who are neglected, abandoned, sickly, lonely in Kenya. Her motto is Dignity to the Old and her supporters are referred to as Great Ambassadors of Dignity to the Old.

Joyce was feted on International Women’s Day in 2014 and in 2017 received a Special Commendation for Ageing Services from the Global Ageing Network at a conference held in Montreux, Switzerland. In March 2018 she received  an award on International Women’s day in Kenya.
