Jenny Nuccio
FOUNDER + CEO OF IMANI KIDS
Dr. Jenny Nuccio is the Founder and CEO of Imani Collective - a social enterprise and holistic women's empowerment program in Mombasa, Kenya, committed to breaking generational poverty. Having grown up in Texas, Jenny and her family now call Kenya home. As an integral part of her Kenyan community for 10 years, her life's mission is to unleash greatness in women,locally and globally, through collaboration and equitable opportunities. Additionally, Jenny holds a Doctorate in Education, where her doctoral research focused on the resource gaps presented for social entrepreneurs and the challenges they faced in implementing change, as well as a M.Ed in Leadership Development and Communications. While Jenny has a multitude of roles and responsibilities, her favorites by far include wife and mother.
Most often, you can find Jenny spending time with her husband and three kids, laughing, walking the streets of Mombasa, or enjoying a warm cup of Kenyan coffee. Her book - LET IT BE WILD - is inspired by the roots of Imani Collective. We encourage everyone to pick up a copy! Born from a wild dream that founder Jenny Nuccio made into a reality, Imani Collective is a community of dreamers + shakers unafraid to ask, "Why not?" It is through this community that we unleash a woman's greatness through empowerment + opportunity. In Let It Be Wild, Nuccio shares her journey of discovering and nurturing her wild soul that led to starting the business that is holistically empowering over 130 artisans in Kenya - inviting the reader along for the ride and challenging them to awaken their own wild soul. We are SO excited to be partnering with Jenny and IMANI KIDS on a very fun project, coming soon... Stay tuned!
