Nairobi, 8 April 2026 – Mi Vida Homes launched a infrastructure improvement project at Starehe Boys’ Centre and School aimed at refurbishing Kibaki House and enhancing the landscaping along the Main Gate entrance. The project, which forms part of the company’s Corporate Social Responsibility program, is expected to be completed within two months.

The upgrade will transform Kibaki House into a modern boarding facility, featuring enhanced student beds, a furnished recreation room, secure lockers, and upgraded ablution facilities including modern toilets and bathrooms. The project will also improve the aesthetic appeal of the school’s main entrance through landscaping works.

Mi Vida Homes Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Sam Kariuki, said: “Our team is proud to undertake this project as part of our commitment to giving back to the community. We look forward to transforming Kibaki House into a modern, state-of-the-art boarding facility that will provide a comfortable and dignified living environment for the students.”

Starehe Boys’ Centre and School Director, Mr. Frederick Okono, expressed appreciation for the partnership, noting: “On behalf of the Starehe community, I sincerely thank Mr. Kariuki, an Old Starehian from the Class of 1998, and Mi Vida Homes for this significant investment. This generous gesture reflects the true spirit of the Starehe Charge and the culture of giving back that continues to strengthen our institution.”

The project underscores the strong partnership between Starehe and its alumni and partners, and its continued commitment to providing a supportive and high-quality learning and living environment for its students.
