Kenya Association of Online Professionals and Freelancers (KAPF)

Mission & Vision of KAFP KAPF was founded on the vision of legitimizing freelancing in the country as a long term career path. By providing services enjoyed by big companies such as pension, life and health insurance, we believe we are adding value to the freelancing industry to not only sustain current freelancers but also attract new ones. Facilitate freelancing in Kenya and ensuring it is a smooth journey for beginners. We aim to offer a stepping stone for all beginners by connecting them with mentors and potential contractors. KAFP will provide a platform for members to network. Members of KAFP will get the benefit of meeting and interacting with people in the same industry hence share insights on how to grow their businesses. Making these connections will help its members scheme on ways they can work together to achieve success. Increase the number of professional freelancers by setting up conferences and programs which will run country wide and target unemployed youth. The conferences will offer training to youth to become online professionals. To work with a network of trusted contractors who support independent professionals with their business. To recommend contractors after they undergo an approval process by KAFP to assess their suitability and integrity. To approve contractors who have a constant work flow and provide them a trustworthy platform to meet potential freelancers. KAFP will provide structure to the freelancing community. Any issues affecting freelancers on the nationwide scale will be brought to KAFP. The members of KAPF along with consultants from various fields will help find solutions to the challenges.
