Esharoth Community Organization is a non-profit organization that provides beds and support to people who are either homeless or at risk. Its headquarters is based in London, UK. Other working areas are in several parts of the world; including the newly started offices in Nairobi, Kenya.
The organization majors in humanitarian activities. We work with individuals who are in poverty, with little or no family support or social networks, who struggle with such issues as homelessness and rough sleeping, alcohol and drug addiction, mental ill-health, and offending.
We encourage them to develop independent living and employability skills to make a lasting improvement in their lives. We give tailored one-to-one support for up to two years, ensuring that our clients have a plan in place to achieve their aspirations for recovery and a better quality of life, and linking them to the appropriate services

Since 2019, Esharoth Community has been working in Kenya to create a world without homelessness. We work through professionals to promote community development and deliver high impact development projects.
Esharoth Kenya works in four opportunity programs: education, Medication, employment and entrepreneurship, and social accountability. We support a wide range of people of all ages: from those who need a brief intervention to help them live independently, to those who are living in chaos and need intensive support to achieve stability.
We work with individuals who are in poverty, sickness, disability, negligence with little or no family support or social networks and struggle with such issues as homelessness, rough sleeping conditions, alcohol, and drug addiction and mental ill-health. We encourage them to develop independent living and employability skills to make a lasting improvement in their lives. We give tailored support up to the years we are sure the clients have a plan to a better quality life and linking them to the appropriate services.

Citizens are increasingly familiar with the plight of the homeless in their own cities and towns. The public is beginning to understand the issues related to human trafficking. However, all too often we seem to think that homelessness is an urban problem and human trafficking is something that happens in developing nations. When homelessness and youth intersect, it becomes a problem of vulnerable people being exploited in both the developed and developing nations.
