UKOMBOZI: Liberation through the Arts
It all began with a love for Sophy, an orphan, and led to empowering girls in Kenya and Kentucky. Through music, dance, drama and other forms of art, relationships are built with the vulnerable. REDEEM With God is only the umbrella offering security to individuals who seek to make changes in their communities. Through our projects we offer protection, direction, salvation and prevention. Redeem With God seeks to be part of the solution, through collaboration and supporting existing agencies and services. Ukombozi means liberation. We liberate the vulnerable from poverty, abuse, limits of education and early marriages; encouraging, empowering and equipping them for success in their communities.
