Our Corporate Responsibility

By grace family has been at the front line in giving back to the society and empowering its employees. Some of the project we have been involved in include:

Staff Welfare

By Grace Synergy (Social Welfare) was started in year 2015 with a vision to cater for all By Grace Farm Feeds staff’s welfare. The scheme is operated by the Human resource department in affiliation with a few elected members who belong to the same group. The welfare has been making concerted efforts to provide welfare programmes to the staffs and its main purpose is to cater for social and economic needs of the staffs. The welfare has rule and regulations which governs it’s running and moreover a constitution which spells outs the do’s and don’ts for every member before and after committing him/herself to the welfare.

Farmers Training

We have initiated a showcase farm where farmers from the area come for training. The farm is complete with dairy and poultry rearing, crop husbandry under drip irrigation.The families in the area have benefitted with water from boreholes sunk by the Japanese Embassy through the initiative of By Grace Farm Feeds directors.

A successful farming scheme, under greenhouses has been initiated taking advantage of the availability of the water from the boreholes. From the Japanese Embassy, a total of Kshs. 14 million was granted and the handing over of the funds witnessed in a groundbreaking ceremony held on 4th March 2015.

Sinking of Boreholes

Jesus Campaign

One of the most significant contributions undertaken by the directors of By Grace Farm Feeds is the ‘JESUS IS LORD CAMPAIGN’. Using their Buses and resources, under the able leadership of  Bishop Dr Gideon Mbithi of Deliverance Churches within Machakos region to reach many souls in almost all the parts  of Kenya.

The campaign has empowered and opened many remote areas and brought to light a number of Churches which are now vibrant. Many churches have benefitted by way of receiving sound equipment, support in construction of church buildings, sponsorship to access education and supporting of the disadvantaged children in the community.
