About
The Nourafchan Foundation (TNF) is the world’s first open-source, participatory philanthropy whose mission is to improve the human condition through social and economic development. By also serving as a philanthropic incubator and accelerator, we are committed to promoting health, happiness, education, and kindness. Initial priorities include education, healthcare, orphans, women empowerment, youth, and those living in extreme poverty and slums. TNF believes in prioritizing philanthropy and focusing on activities that have the greatest impact, underpinned by the dual objectives of sustainability and scalability. Headquarters are based out of Africa’s largest slum, Kibera, in Nairobi, Kenya, with regional offices located in the US, Middle East, and Asia. His Highness Sheikh Nahayan Mabarak Al Nahayan serves as Honorary Chairman.
The Nourafchan Foundation was established to honor the memory and continue the legacy of Shahin Allen Nourafchan, who passed away from cancer in 2005 at the age of 30.
