The Twiga Foundation, Inc., founded in 2005,
is a nonprofit corporation dedicated to
inspiring, promoting and maintaining family-consciousness
at home, in the workplace and in the community.

Family-consciousness begins with an awareness that family is at the heart of our society. More proactive than reactive, this awareness helps us understand that we can maximize our lives and find life in our work when we are conscious of our families – including care giving, individual and family health, community health and safety, education, transportation, environmental concerns, housing, career development and mobility and many other areas that intersect our lives.

Twiga is dedicated to being a voice for family consciousness to strengthen each individual’s commitment to themselves, their family and their community.  As we focus on the workplace we find workplace flexibility to be a key component in addressing the mismatch between the workplace and family needs.  Our efforts are centered around bringing to light an understanding of workplace flexibility as a good business strategy that, additionally, helps to insure a strong workforce for the future through healthy families and communities.
