Eradication of extreme poverty and hunger is one of the key tenets of the Millennium Development Goals. Dukwe has for a long time envisioned a world where food is available and affordable to as many people as possible. It is not an easy task bearing in mind that food shortages are frequent especially in Africa mainly due to poor agricultural policies, hostile climate, corruption and high levels of poverty.

Kibera, the largest slum in Nairobi and Africa is a hotbed of poverty. This is a slum where unemployment rates are high, HIV/AIDS rates are high, cases of sexual assault common, literacy levels low, clean water still scarce and latrines few. Cases of insecurity, ethnic intolerance and xenophobia occur in this slum whenever elections approach. Hygiene related diseases such as cholera are part and parcel of life; diarrhea is not strange due to the filth and dirt which are not easy to clear.

Dukwe saw it necessary to help these slum dwellers with food, one of the basic human needs. This is part of his charity works among the underprivileged and marginalized in the society. The food was received with a lot of gratitude and the residents of Kibera slums for once felt their plights had reached some well-wishers. It was joy and lots of thanks from the recipients of the food and cash do donations as they were assured of food for days to come.

On top of the free feeding program, Dukwe provided the residents with a monthly certificate of financial support from profits accrued from his vast business empire. This was to ensure hope was instilled in the hopeless and a form of food security in the near future.

The Kibera feeding program has enabled Charles Dukwe get in touch with the needy in Kenyan and it also gave him a first-hand experience of the life in Kibera slums. This experience has challenged him to continue with the spirit of humility and service to the needy people. Charles Dukwe has committed himself to seeing that food and Agriculture is a major part of his plans for Africa Development.
