Sima Community Based Organization is a Christian, Non-Profit organization based in Kenya , working to reduce and/or eradicate human suffering by responding to physical, spiritual and emotional needs of people.
At Sima CBO we understand that the future of Kenya is in the children that we serve. With the support of volunteers around the world we are able to serve the widows and orphans in our community to varying degrees. We help with school supplies, basic needs and have even had the opportunity to help build a home for a desperate widow and her orphaned grandchildren. We do this because we know that these are God's most precious amongst us.
Through this program we endeavour to reach out to people of all age groups with the gospel and Community at large. We in Sima CBO feel that all problems faced by human kind, need to deal with the spiritual needs then the physical needs will be easily dealt with. Given the example of the Clashes, HIV/AIDS scourge which has and it still is killing many people regardless of their age and status. To successfully realize the goals and objectives of this program, we endeavour to work in partnership/collaboration with other churches and Christian organizations both at local and international level. AIDS is the leading killer disease in the country, which has claimed lives of both men and women of ages mainly between 14-40 years. Yet as shocking as these deaths are, the impact of HIV/AIDS does not end with them. Because those dying from AIDS are mainly people in the prime of their lives who are often parents, a less well-known and calamitous effect of AIDS is the vast numbers of children orphaned by the disease.

Sima's carries out intervention activities with a Community/ Christian approach with love and compassion towards those families, which have been affected and infected by HIV/AIDS epidemic and other issues causing human suffering.
Through the community development and empowerment we mainly target to work with the existing Community Based Groups since they are based at the grassroots and they can easily identify most of their pressing problems in their communities and are able to come up with possible solutions to address them.

Realizing the importance and role to empower women, youths, and men, in order to get income and skills to alleviate poverty.

Two day we had meeting of Peace and conciliation conflict in Alakara Hotel. First day was Trans Nzoia west but second day was Trans Nzoia east district. It is very good comments and ideas but how we can come up with a solution to finishing crisis in boundaries to Trans-Nzoia district. Those people who are leaving in boundaries in Trans-Nzoia most them they are lost their life. Innocent people lost their life without any protection. On Thursday this week in Cherangeny attackers killed a student who was protected their cattle for stealing.
There are some issues or my opinion asking myself about Peace in North Rift and Mt.Elgon for about security.
- Leaders will never bring Peace in their areas due to not reach to the common man (mwananchi).
- I will Peace come and if not settle internal displacement People’s (IDPs) who are still in camps.
- Settle unemployment for the youths.
- Fighting Poverty.
For my appeal comment to Peace in Kenya and ipeace network we need to create an office to equipped resource to advocacy for the Peace in the areas where conflict is that is a solution where we shall meet directly people without organizing seminars, meetings in big hotels, use only leaders, and other things.
Let us bring resources down to the people to utilize it in proper way. Trans – Nzoia district as cosmopolitan district need apply literature to use in order people to work together.
Let us join together and get a solution to protect our people.
Thanks.
