About JengaCode

We're on a mission to empower the next generation of tech creators and innovators by making coding and robotics education accessible to every young person in Kenya.

Our Story

JengaCode was founded in 2022 with a simple but powerful conviction: every young person deserves access to quality tech education and the opportunity to become a creator, not just a consumer.

Our founder, David Kipchoge, watched brilliant young minds across Kenya struggle to access the tools and knowledge needed to pursue their passion for technology. Despite the shortage of affordable, accessible tech education, he believed something different was possible.

What started as weekend coding workshops in a small community center has grown into a vibrant ecosystem serving thousands of students, partnering with 50+ schools, and employing a team of dedicated educators and mentors.

Today, JengaCode is one of Kenya's leading providers of youth tech education, known for our innovative curricula, passionate mentorship, and unwavering commitment to making tech education truly accessible to all young people, regardless of their economic circumstances.
