Meaning of the name MUTAHO

  • MU – Is a Luhya word that means Inside
  • Taho – Is a Luhya word that means light.
  •  Mutaho Means a place of light.

Kenya was Colonised by the British since 1895 to 1963 when Kenya got its Independent. The British went to mine lots minerals in Kenya including Gold that was most famous in many parts of Western. Kakamega is County in Western Kenya is well known for Gold mining. The British had set big lights in currently known as Mutaho Primary School 24/7 that helped them during mining process. Many community members used to walk and when u ask for direction or where they are going they could reply i am going into the light. They later named the place MUTAHO.

 

Mutaho is a village where i was born, its one village that has no light at all in terms of development and infrastructures because of lack of education among the community due to high poverty. Many pupils drop out from school at Primary level. Its from this scenario that made Mr. Kizito to start Mutaho Children’s Foundation Australia so that the charity can sponsor vulnerable children to higher levels of education and reduce poverty levels in the communities at large bringing the real meaning of Mutaho into our livelihoods as place of LIGHT.

 

Mutaho Children’s Foundation Australia was found in 2007 by Kizito Shisanya. Our first sponsored Children have studied well completed high schools, college, technical training Institutes and university studies and they are trying their level best to bring food on the table to themselves and their family at large. That is the greatest Impact MCFA has caused in their lives. The vision still going now in Australia, Mutaho Children’s Foundation Australia will continue its mission in eradicating poverty through Education and empowering women in the communities.
