PODCAST 🎙️: Kennedy Odede grew up in Kibera, Africa’s largest urban slum. At the age of 10, he dreamed of factory work for 10 cents a day. But after stealing a mango out of hunger, a stranger’s single act of kindness changed the course of his life. 🥭 Today, Kennedy is the CEO and founder of Shining Hope for Communities, or SHOFCO. For 20 years, SHOFCO has empowered Kenya’s poorest neighborhoods, helping over 4 million people access clean water, education, and Internet. In 2024, TIME Magazine named Kennedy one of the 100 most influential people in the world. Kennedy shares with me what it took for him to see human goodness while surrounded by scarcity and anger, and how poverty taught him that being together is one of the greatest forms of wealth. This…is A Bit of Optimism. To learn more about Kennedy and his work, check out: https://www.shofco.org/ ⏰ Timestamps + + + Simon is an unshakable optimist.
