What is the Old Mutual Foundation?

Through the Old Mutual Foundation, we continue to invest in the development of the societies in which we operate. Old Mutual Foundation is the social responsibility arm for the Old Mutual Group, which includes Faulu Microfinance Bank. The foundation creates a positive impact in the community through partnerships to provide financial education, skills development, access to quality healthcare and environmental conservation efforts.

Looking after your financial wellbeing

Financial education, skills and literacy programmes, including financial awareness and education programmes.
Financial inclusion programmes, such as those intended to strengthen bottom-of-the-pyramid financial services providers, promote innovative models of distribution of financial services and financial technology, and/or advance research on the financial system that informs more inclusive national policy and regulation.
Entrepreneurship and enterprise development activities that aim to bring small local businesses into the financial system.

Healthcare and environment

We support access to quality healthcare through funding provision of medical equipment, improvement of healthcare infrastructure and intervention programmes. We also support environmental conservation through the funding of sustainable management of resources, the protection of the natural environment, changes in public policy, individual behavior, and conservation initiatives.

Aberdare National Park

Aberdare National Park is one of the oldest national parks in Kenya located in Nyeri county. Over the years the salient sector of the park has degraded due to the high concentration of wildlife in the area thus overexploitation.
