About Us

It all started in 2019 in one of the villages in the Ivory Coast, where we met a kid wearing the same t-shirt every day. In the evening, he would wash the t-shirt, let it dry overnight, and then wear it the next morning. In no time, we realized that this shirt was the only one he owned. As we observed other children in similar situations, we knew it was time for us to join those who have taken their passion for helping others to a higher level.

Kind Touch was born in 2022 as a result. Through the donation of clothing, shoes, and toys, our team strives to meet the needs of impoverished communities. In July 2022, our kick-off mission was successfully completed when we visited an orphanage in Ivory Coast and donated food.
Our Story
Kind Touch is a relatively young non-profit organization founded by Aida Elegbede, and Paul Alle-Koffi Jr. Both mother and son are committed to bringing a smile to the faces of those in need. Our non-profit organization is supported by a team of passionate individuals, including teenagers, who are dedicated to serving men, women, and children who need assistance. Through our team collaboration, we aim to improve the quality of life for those living in developing countries in Africa. Several activities will be undertaken in order to accomplish this goal, such as providing them with clothes, shoes, food, toys, and other items of the same nature. Moreover, we will support local champions and heroes making a difference in their communities. As we grow, the organization will expand its support to include a variety of other programs, such as the sponsorship of children.
